Community members will have an opportunity tonight to provide feedback to property owners and the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency about the redevelopment of the Tahoe Biltmore area in Crystal Bay.
The Tahoe Biltmore presentation is part of a meeting to introduce concept designs for the TRPA's Community Enhancement Projects.
Boulder Bay LLC, the corporation that bought the Tahoe Biltmore Casino and the Crystal Bay Hotel in late June, said it will present a plan for a destination resort experience.
"We are proposing to try and reinvent the resort experience at north stateline," Boulder Bay spokesman Lew Feldman said. "An experience that de-emphasizes gaming and tries to integrate the kind of dining and retail that would also serve the local populations in Kings Beach and Incline Village."
Seven concept projects will be presented at the community meeting at 6 p.m. at the North Tahoe Community Conference Center in Kings Beach.
Five of the projects are within the commercial core of Kings Beach. Another one is proposed for Homewood Mountain Resort on the West Shore.
The projects that will be presented are examples of smart-growth projects that incorporate mixed-use and transit.
The TRPA is relying on community participation to steer the projects, spokesman Jeff Cowan said.
"We really need unfiltered community input," Cowan said. "We want to get people involved as early as possible to make sure that the projects that go forward are in alignment with the community vision."
The community enhancement project was launched in August as part of the Pathway process to update the TRPA regional plan.
Projects that exhibit the most commitment to mixed-use, transit friendly development will be chosen to go forward, according to a TRPA release.
