Placer County supes move forward on Kings Beach project

The Placer County Board of Supervisors last week approved three items related to the Kings Beach Commercial Core Improvement Project.

There are 294 parcels within the proposed district’s boundaries, of which the county owns eight.

In its first action, the board authorized the county executive officer to vote “yes” on county-owned parcels to be assessed to pay for maintenance of the streetscape improvements.

The supervisors at their Jan. 22 meeting in Kings Beach will have a public hearing regarding the consideration of levying the assessments.

In the second action, the board approved an agreement between the North Lake Tahoe Public Utility District and the Placer County Department of Public Works to perform water and sewer line relocations within the Kings Beach Core Project.

The third action involved right-of-way property acquisitions as part of the project.

The $48 million project is designed to improve and revitalize a 1.1-mile stretch of Highway 28.
