Eleven-Unit Residential Project Major Design Review & Special Use Permit, File #25-029

The Eleven-Unit Residential Project, identified as File 25-029, involves the redevelopment of a commercial site located at 1050 Fremont Ave in South Lake Tahoe, California. The scope of work includes the demolition of an existing single-story commercial building to make way for the construction of eleven multi-family residential units housed within six three-story structures. Each residential unit is designed to include four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a personal balcony, an in-unit washer and dryer, and two covered parking spaces. The project is managed by the City of South Lake Tahoe and is categorized as a forecast under NAICS code 541330. Because the development is an in-fill project consistent with general plan and zoning requirements in an urban location with adequate utilities, it has been granted a categorical exemption from CEQA under Section 15332, Class 32. The multi-family residential use is authorized through a Special Use Permit. Key points of contact include Gretchen Schooleman, Assistant Planner for the City of South Lake Tahoe, and Esoteric Holding LP as the property owner and land planning consultant.
