The City published an Alternatives Report on May 12, 2009 (with minor updates on May 21, 2009). This report examines different possible approaches to accommodating future development,
economic growth, and environmental preservation in South Lake Tahoe. This report is made up of two main parts:

 

Part I: Land Use Alternatives is a summary of three land use alternatives.

Part II: Policy Options is a summary of existing and emerging policy concepts
that addresses major issues facing the City.

Public discussion of the benefits and drawbacks of each alternative will assist City officials in ultimately choosing a preferred alternative. Please click on the link below to download a copy of the Alternatives Report:

In March 2009 the City prepared a survey for Latino residents as part of the public outreach effort for the General Plan.  The survey, which contained questions about the positive and negative aspects of the city and neighborhoods, was distributed to ESL classes at the Family Resource Center and Al Tahoe.  About 70 students responded to the survey.

Welcome to the City of South Lake Tahoe's General Plan Update website. In October 2007 the City of South Lake Tahoe began a 25-month process to update the City's General Plan, last updated in 1999. The General Plan is the City's policy document that guides land use, transportation, infrastructure, community design, environmental, and other decisions in coordination with TRPA's Regional Plan. The General Plan is intended to provide for orderly growth and convey the community's values and expectations for the future.
