Construction of the proposed project is anticipated to start following receipt of all TRPA project approvals and acknowledgement of all TRPA permits (including obtaining TRPA approval of the proposed project, of the four publicly accessible pedestrian/bike paths, of the two-step subdivision and open space land conveyance and of the Plan Area Statement amendment application to allow the moderate-income deed-restricted homes).  This process would also include obtaining all discretionary approvals and permits from Douglas County and the State of Nevada, and all other necessary project and subdivision permits and approvals. Thus, a start of construction estimate is also subject to the timing of such approvals in relation to the start of the allowable “in-ground” building season in the Lake Tahoe Basin (May 1 – October 15).

Construction of the proposed project is anticipated to occur in three phases.  Temporary BMPs would be installed prior to the commencement of each phase of construction and permanent BMPs would be installed on each phase of homes prior to their completion, per the TRPA Code of Ordinances.

Phase 1 is anticipated to begin at the time outlined above in relation to the receipt by applicant of all TRPA project approvals, plus 12 months, plus the period of time until the next “May 1” building season start date, and would last for approximately one year.  It is anticipated that approximately one third of the homes in the project would be constructed in Phase 1.

Phase 2 construction of the next one third of homes is anticipated to begin twelve months after the commencement of Phase 1, and would last for approximately one year.  Phase 3 construction is anticipated to begin twelve months after the commencement of Phase 2, and would last for approximately one year during which the remaining homes in the project would be completed.

In addition, LPFs (pedestrian and bike trails) and any remaining homes would be constructed during Phase 3.  It is anticipated that opening the LPFs to the public would take place after full completion of construction of all components of the proposed project.

The foregoing proposed construction schedule is tentative and is subject to adjustment as necessary for reasons of force majeure, the status of the residential market, regulatory issues, technical issues or other issues unanticipated at this time, which could result in the construction schedule or components of each phase being either accelerated or extended, subject to the approval of TRPA and Douglas County.
