Motel to Home Program Grows
March 24'-SJCLT Board Loosens Qualification Requirements
SJCLT's Motel to Home Program continues to grow. With the latest beneficiary, the program has now moved families, including 37 children living in motels, to more
permanent & adequate homes.
SJCLT's Board recently loosened qualification requirements in hopes the program will help more locals find adequate,
long-term housing.
SJCLT is also looking to expand the program beyond the South Shore of Lake Tahoe to benefit more communities
in the Tahoe Basin.

Sugar Pine Village
Phase 1 Welcomes Tenants
Phase 1's application process began on 4/15/24. Click HERE for SPV property management & leasing information.
Sugar Pine Village is a 248-unit project developed to house a local workforce that has been increasingly priced out of Tahoe Basin housing. The complex will consist of 9 buildings spread over 10 acres, as well as two community centers. About 90% of the units are affordable to workers earning less than 60% of area median income, which comes to about $68,000, for a four-person household's income, since Spring 2024.
Sugar Pine Village is the first development to break ground as part of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Excess State Land Program executive order, which made under-utilized, state-owned
land available for affordable housing.

21 three-bedrooms.
Phase 2 closed financing in August 2023 & vertical construction commenced in the Summer of 2024, planning to welcome
tenants to SPV's next 60 units in Fall 2025.
