Sugar Pine Village Project Initial Environmental Checklist

Sugar Pine Village Project Initial Environmental Checklist

Sugar Pine Village is envisioned to be a new residential community that fits into the existing neighborhood while also preserving native species, sensitive land and providing residents with new high quality, sustainable housing designed to support active transportation, the local workforce and their families. The Village proposal will maximize the state of California’s goal of leveraging surplus state-owned land (currently owned by California Tahoe Conservancy) to address the housing crisis by facilitating the delivery of 248 units of affordable multi-family housing in a short time frame. The Project also provides the opportunity to execute on vital planning work that has been undertaken by the City of South Lake Tahoe and TRPA through the Tahoe Valley Area Plan. Sugar Pine Village will offer a mix of uses that include residential, office space for non-profit partners and childcare. The housing will provide studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments targeted to households earning between 30 to 80 percent of Area Median Income.
