Rocky Point neighborhood meeting on proposed US50 project

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The community is invited to attend a forum on the US 50 South Shore Community Revitalization Project on Wednesday, September 18 from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on the Fern Road cul-de-sac.

The project involves the realignment of US 50, south of the tourist core. Importantly for the City of South Lake Tahoe the project includes a new main street in the Heavenly Village area, it requires new affordable housing units be built before construction can begin, additional parking strategies for the tourist core area, pedestrian, bike, and transit enhancements and other
community amenities.

The event will be a chance for the Rocky Point community to engage with stakeholders from the City of South Lake Tahoe, and the Tahoe Transportation District. The meeting will take place in the Rocky Point neighborhood and will include free pizza and drinks for the attendees.

“It’s important for the City of South Lake Tahoe to come to the residents who have the potential to be most affected by this project,” said City Manager Frank Rush, “We want people to have their questions answered, and a meeting like this felt like the perfect way to do that.”

The meeting will include booths about roadway design, neighborhood amenities, relocation assistance, access and safety, and replacement housing options.
