Centers, Neutral, Outside GIS layer for PM1 - Modify Distribution of Development for the Lake Tahoe Region. Data provides specific regulations for identified areas. This Special District data is found in the Regional Plan Update Map 1: Conceptual Regional Land Use, December 12, 2012. The data was broken up into zones to get the geographic distribution. The three categories are Centers, Neutral Land within ¼ mile of the Centers, and land Outside of the quarter mile buffer. Ski Areas that have transit service (Homewood Ski Area and Heavenly Mountain Resort) were also included into the neutral areas since they are not automobile dependent like outlying single family areas are. |

Individual Restoration Plans should be developed for each Stream Restoration Plan Area in coordination with the applicable local government and property owners in the plan area. Restoration Plans may be developed as a component of an Area Plan or as a separate document and should identify feasible opportunities for environmental restoration. </SPAN></P></LI></UL><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
