Placer County supervisors approve plan for new ski village at Palisades Tahoe

The ski village at Palisades Tahoe is about to get a lot bigger – about 85 acres to be exact.

PLACER COUNTY, Calif. — The Placer County Board of Supervisors approved unanimously Tuesday the ‘Village at Palisades Tahoe Specific Plan,’ which includes an 85-acre resort village in northeastern Placer County and redevelopment of the existing ski resort base area at the west of Olympic Valley.

So, what’s in the plan?

8.8 acres for employee housing, a community market, shipping and receiving, and employee intercept parking. That area would be about 1.3 miles east of the resort near the entrance to Olympic Valley.

The plan also allows for an all-season mountain resort community with up to 850 hotel, condo-hotel and fractional ownership residences.

The development would be limited to a maximum of 1,493 resort bedrooms with 297,000 square feet of new and replacement commercial place.

It includes a new fire station within the proposed village, employee housing for 386 workers and public transit improvements.

The project could take 25 years to complete.

Palisades Tahoe opens for its 2024 season, Friday.
