Meyers multi-use trails won't be plowed this winter
Submitted by paula on Fri, 12/13/2019 - 9:27pm
MEYERS, Calif. - Due to a lack of viable bids from local snow removal contractors there will be no plowing of the multi-use trails on the lake side of El Dorado County this winter.
In July the Bicycle Advisory Committee of the South Lake Tahoe Recreation Facilities JPA awarded $22,000 to El Dorado County for bike trail plowing in the county for winter of 2019/20. When the project went out to bid they only received interest from Alpine Smith, according to Donaldo Palaroan, P.E., senior civil engineer for the County. Their $48,500 bid was more than double of what was budgeted.

Fire damages South Lake Tahoe home during dangerous red flag conditions
Submitted by paula on Wed, 09/12/2018 - 10:23pm
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Had it not been for the quick response by first responders, a fire at a South Lake Tahoe home Wednesday could have been much worse due to the dry conditions and high winds.
Lake Valley Fire Protections District (LVFPD) crews responded to a structure fire off of Lodgepole Trail. Upon arrival crews found the home in flames and additional resources were called to the scene to prevent further spread of fire to neighboring homes and vegetation.
"The cause of the fire is under investigation but appears to be accidental," said Kileigh Labrado of LVFPD.

Lake Tahoe Wildlife Bear Cubs Begin Hibernation
Submitted by Editor on Tue, 11/13/2012 - 9:56pm
Are you ready for some fun? Well, it may be ‘fun’ for us, BUT for our seven bear cub in the BEAR Cage at Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care, it is not so much fun for them.
We are putting them into hibernation. Yesterday (Monday, Nov. 12), they ate their 'Last Supper.’ Today, they were introduced to some green tree limbs, supplied to LTWC by Ed Cook of Ed Cook’s Tree Service in South Lake Tahoe. The cubs knew exactly what to do with the limbs. They started chewing them.

Loop road poop road, you do realize that the state is going to do what they want, how they want and when they want with concerns to the Loop road. This is probably the best chance we have to get out of our financial obligation with regards to pensions, healthcare, unsound financial decisions, raising taxes, giving away the keys to the city to every con artist around and quite possibly the clap.
