Developer Planning ‘Another Village’ at Lake Tahoe’s South Shore

A rendering depicts the plans for what Kawana Meadows Development Corporation CEO Will Oswald calls "another village" for South Lake Tahoe.

A mix of commercial and residential development is scheduled to begin construction this summer at the Nevada/California state line at Tahoe's South Shore. Our contributor Kaleb Roedel of the Northern Nevada Business Weekly reports.

In April of 2017, the Kawana Meadows Development Corporation closed on the sale of 8 acres of land and building entitlements in South Shore.

At last week's South Lake Tahoe City Council meeting, developer Will Oswald presented his plans for what he calls "another village" across from Heavenly Village.

The Resort at Tahoe will include roughly 240 condos, 135 hotel rooms, along with many amenities. There will also be roughly 650 parking spaces.

Consultants estimate that the resort will bring in $13 million in transient occupancy tax and $1.4 million in sales tax annually. Construction will take more than 3 years.
