Ski Resort In Nevada
Alpine County Superior Court/State of California - General Information
With two Alpine ski areas (Kirkwood Resort and Bear Valley Ski Area), Alpine County entertains thousands of skiers and their families during the winter season. While modest expansion of the existing ski areas might occur under existing Forest Service permits, the Forest Service does not plan to issue permits for additional ski areas in the central Sierra Nevada in the near future. Kirkwood Resort plans significant expansion of seasonal condominiums and this will impact the court's workload in the civil and criminal areas. An additional ski area development has been suggested at Pacific Valley where U.S. Forest Service Lands have been withheld from wilderness or further study designation in the Federal RARE II Inventory. This project is not expected to receive serious consideration for more than ten to thirty years or after Mt. Reba and other ski area developments are completed. ... [Read More]

Mitigating Traffic Congestion - The Role of Demand-Side Strategies: Lake Tahoe Basin - CA
The population of the Lake Tahoe Basin consists of residents and visitors. The Basin economy is significantly dependent on resort, recreational, and gaming industries. The resident population lives and works in the basin, and the influx of visitors arrive during the winter ski season (December through March), and the summer seasons (June through August). However, the month of August has the highest travel demand in terms of peak hour traffic volumes on the roadways. Currently (according to 2000 census data) about 56,000 people reside year-round in the Basin. Population growth through 2010 is expected to be modest in contrast to the rest of the four counties of which the Tahoe Basin is a part. The land use restrictions and the physical carrying capacity of the Basin will tend to maintain steady linear trends in population growth. ... [Read More]
