Included on the agenda is a request by the Placer County Redevelopment Agency to hire a private contractor to develop property within the North Lake Tahoe Redevelopment Project area. Specifically, the county plans to develop the Kings Beach Eastern Gateway development, which encompasses 1.3 acres and is zoned for commercial use. Subject to the approval of the supervisors tomorrow, the Placer County Redevelopment Agency will issue a "Request For Proposal" on Oct. 20 for developers to bid on the project. A pre-proposal meeting will be held at the site on Nov. 16. Interested parties may walk the site and ask questions. Proposals will be due on Dec. 6.The Supervisors will also decide if the county should continue contracting with the North Tahoe Business Association for $65,000 for marketing services to continue promoting the North Tahoe area through outreach, awareness and holding local events and festivals. The money comes from the Tahoe Tax Increment Fund, a source that was created by borrowing against future property tax revenues (a common practice in most municipalities, especially used to improve blight).
Additionally, the Supervisors will vote on reducing public transportation services to Truckee -- specifically late morning bus runs -- due to decreased funding from the federal government and the inability of Placer County to backfill the decreased funding ($23,000). The supervisor meeting begins at 9 a.m. in the Granlibakken Conference Center & Lodge, 725 Granlibakken Road, Tahoe City, or watch it online here.
