Environmental review beginning on Tahoe XC Lodge

On July 17, Tahoe City PUD is hosting two scoping meetings for the environmental impact report for the Tahoe Cross-Country Lodge replacement and expansion project.

They will be at 10am and 6pm in the board room at 221 Fairway Drive, Tahoe City.

The notice of preparation per CEQA was released June 22. 

In 2015, the historic 1930s Rubicon Bay Schilling residence was donated to TCCSEA with the vision of becoming the Tahoe XC Lodge. The existing Tahoe XC Lodge at 925 Country Club Drive, Tahoe City is owned by Tahoe City Public Utility District and operated by Tahoe XC and the Tahoe Cross-Country Ski Education Association (TCCSEA) under a concession agreement with TCPUD. 

The project involves replacing and relocating the lodge to a site off Polaris Road adjacent to the North Tahoe Middle/High School. The purpose of the project is to reconstruct a facility by re-using and re-purposing the historic Schilling Lodge in an effort to better serve year-round recreation activities and services.
