Revisions being made in proposed STPUD booster station

People who want to comment on the proposed booster station on Grizzly Mountain Road now have until April 28 to do so.

South Tahoe Public Utility District has been working with neighbors in the area on a redesign of the building to better satisfy their desires while still providing the necessary configuration for the South Shore district to pump water.

Here is the latest design.

While neighbors are expressing gratitude toward STPUD’s willingness to make changes, as of April 25 they were still waiting for information on “some new possible sites where this booster station could go”.

The South Tahoe PUD is expected to vote on the project May 5, with it going before the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency hearing officer review on May 19.
