The presiding judge hearing the case involving developer JMA & Assoc. vs. WestShore Citizens ruled(after 13 months) that the developer must submit more environmental data reflecting a scaled down version/ less impacting design in addition to that already approved by Placer County.
The developer and the county said this is a positive ruling and will require some "tweaking" of the proposed design already approved. This could take some time, of course; but representatives of the county and the developer group stated that this was not a major obstacle to the complete project. No doubt they feel that they can overcome considerable changes required and still go forward.
The "Sierra Sun" carried a complete article on the ruling with a reference to the entire 125 page court document given to parties involved.
It may still get done; but maybe not before interest rates go up again. The price of lumber has already gone up over 50% in the last year, along with other building materials. Labor costs continue to stay low as few construction workers are able to find work in the Tahoe/Reno region.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
