A new citizen science project has been launched and organizations are seeking public help in submitting observations of rain, snow, and mixed precipitation.

During the winter, a few degrees can make all the difference between digging your car out of a snowbank and rushing rivers overtopping their banks. Why? Winter storms at near-freezing temperatures have notoriously fickle precipitation, with mixes of rain and snow. While the air temperature difference between the two may be slight, the real-world consequences can be huge.

A friend of mine, and popular columnist, whose name shall be kept a secret to protect the innocent, but rhymes with Pat Hickey, asked me yesterday if I believed in a life beyond. I felt like Jack Benny when confronted by a robber who demanded, “Your money or your life!” When Jack didn’t answer he repeated, “I said your money or your life!” After a pregnant pause Jack responded, “I’m thinking, I’m thinking!”

Welcome to the Tahoe Prosperity Center’s first Housing specific newsletter. Going forward this newsletter will provide housing information, updates, and ways you can support housing in the Tahoe region. The Tahoe Prosperity Center first began pulling partners together to address the housing crisis in 2018, with the South Shore Housing Tahoe Partnership. It spurred the creation of the South Shore Region Local Housing Needs and Opportunities Assessment and culminated in the South Shore Region Local Resident Housing Action Plan. The Action Plan was released in March, 2020, just as the COVID-19 pandemic began to take hold, and we feared that progress may be delayed. However, nothing could have been further from the truth. Virtually all of the partners on the South Shore have been making incredible progress, despite the unprecedented challenges we’ve faced in the last 18 months. A sampling of progress includes:

Policy changes for greater ADU adoption and hotel to housing conversions;

New housing developments for below market rate rental and ownership homes

Increased single room occupancy (SRO) units in the City’s program

A new sewer unit transfer program for affordable housing

"The IVGID Board of Trustees will meet via livestream at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov 10, to receive updates on the Mountain Golf Course Cart Path Replacement Project as well as the Effluent Pipeline project.

The board will discuss the continued need for work at the Mountain Course. This includes the debate during previous board meetings in regards of the correct path to take the project, which could potentially receive an additional service amendment to the professional services contract through Lumos and Associations in the amount of $44,500."

NDOT COMPLETES FIRST CONSTRUCTION SEASON OF

SR 431-28 TAHOE IMPROVEMENTS; TWO MORE SEASONS AHEAD

CARSON CITY, Nev. – On Nov. 5, the Nevada Department of Transportation and Q&D Construction completed the first season of a multi-year project to enhance the existing roadway and utility system along sections of State Routes 431 and 28 to help preserve pavement and protect Lake Tahoe.

This season, crews installed 57,000 linear feet of Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) underground conduit line along SR 431 from Mt. Rose summit to the SR 28 intersection; east of the SR 28 roundabout toward Crystal Bay; and west of the SR 28 roundabout to the Northwood/Southwood Boulevard intersection in Incline Village. The new ITS conduit will connect and power roadway cameras, road/weather information systems, traffic counters, traffic flow detectors, automated chain/snow tire control signage, and detection for runaway truck ramps. This also provides opportunity for early installation of future electrical and communications including fiber optic cables, and is part of a broader plan to make high-speed internet more accessible throughout Nevada.

Drainage improvements, including a drop inlet and culvert, were also made at the SR 431 scenic overlook to help collect and transfer snow runoff that will help preserve the roadway.

“This project construction season was quite successful with the collaboration of the various emergency response agencies, local government representative, other construction projects, the business community and area residents,” said Bhupinder Sandhu, Resident Engineer, NDOT District II. “Numerous milestones were reached despite the unexpected closure due to the Caldor fire, as well as holiday weekend schedules for convenient public access during peak visitor season. Travel delays averaged less than 10 minutes. Communications outreach ensured stakeholders had information to help with their travel decisions and public comments received were overwhelmingly positive.”

Next season, May through October 2022, drivers should anticipate multiple work zones with single-lane flagger-controlled closures and up to 30-minute travel delays. Commercial vehicles with air brakes will be prohibited from traveling over Mt. Rose Summit during the work. Work for the 2022 construction season includes:

ITS conduit line installation – SR 28 from Nevada/California border to south in front of the casinos, and from the Northwood/Southwood Boulevard intersection in Incline Village to Ponderosa Ranch.
Repaving six miles of SR 28 - four inches of roadway asphalt will be removed and replaced.
Select roadway cross slopes will be reconstructed for enhanced roadway alignment and drainage.
Drainage and guardrail improvements will enhance roadside safety and water quality, ensuring additional stormwater treatment before reaching Lake Tahoe.
Enhanced sidewalks, sidewalk ramps and driveway accesses
An aging timber retaining wall on SR 28 approximately a half mile north of Memorial Point lookout will be reinforced with a soil nail wall.
Drainage improvements will be made where Marlette Creek crosses underneath SR 28, enhancing water quality and ensuring additional stormwater treatment before reaching Lake Tahoe.
SR 431 from SR 28 roundabout in Incline Village to Tahoe Rim Trailhead at Mt. Rose Summit:
Repaving eight miles of SR 431- Three inches of roadway asphalt will be removed and replaced.
Approximately three miles of new concrete barrier rail
Select roadway shoulders will be reconstructed and flattened.

Tahoe Daily Tribune featured our amazing game! "It would be easy to say that nothing went right Friday for the Incline Highlanders in their home playoff loss to Battle Mountain. They racked up more than 100 yards in penalties and suffered multiple injuries to key players, including two of their most lethal offensive threats. But they also forced five turnovers and the defense allowed the Longhorns just one touchdown.....Instead of limping off the field with sad faces, Incline has a tradition whether they win or lose the final game. The Highlanders gathered in a circle and the seniors performed their favorite tackling drill one last time which lifted their spirits.

“They get to call out their fellow seniors for one final tackle hoo-rah,” Martinez said."
