Stateline, Nevada—The final environmental impact report is now available for the Placer County Tahoe Basin Area Plan and Tahoe City Lodge project.
The Tahoe Basin Area Plan is for unincorporated areas of Placer County within the Tahoe Basin, approximately 72 square miles, including the communities of Kings Beach, Tahoe Vista, Carnelian Bay, Dollar Point, Tahoe City, Sunnyside, Homewood, and Tahoma. It outlines how the county will achieve environmental restoration goals for Lake Tahoe and sets land-use regulations for the next 20 years.
The proposed area plan includes one near-term project, the Tahoe City Lodge. Located at 255 and 265 North Lake Boulevard in Tahoe City, the project would redevelop an existing commercial complex into a 118-unit lodge with a mix of hotel rooms, one- and two-bedroom suites, hotel amenities, and parking. It would also redevelop an existing clubhouse building and new shared-use parking at the Tahoe City Golf Course.
