Agenda Item #:7
Agenda Item: Community Corrections Partnership
Executive Summary: Assembly Bill 109 created the California Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011, which shifted supervision of non-violent, non-serious, and non-high-risk sex offenders from state parole to local county probation upon release from state prison; this group, known as the realigned population, is now supervised at the county level rather than by state parole officers. Each county is required to establish a Community Corrections Partnership (CCP), consisting of local justice stakeholders such as Probation, the Sheriff, and the District Attorney, to plan and oversee the use of AB 109 funds, which support community-based corrections, supervision, and evidence-based programs aimed at reducing recidivism. In March 2023, SLTPD entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with El Dorado County Probation, making the department eligible for AB 109 funding, although it has not yet utilized these funds. In October 2025, the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors approved the FY 2025–26 CCP budget, allocating $20,000 for SLTPD to partner with El Dorado County Probation, with the funding designated to support training and specialized enforcement services in South Lake Tahoe in alignment with the CCP’s goal of reducing recidivism among the realigned population.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions:
Pass a Resolution: 1) authorizing and directing the Chief of Police to execute the First Amendment to Memorandum of Understanding #7399 for the FY 2025-26 Community Corrections Partnership Budget; 2) authorizing reimbursement up to $20,000.00 from the El Dorado County Probation Department into the Administration - Police Special Services account; and, 3) approving an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget as follows: 10002110 - 34210

Meeting Date: May 19, 2026
Title: Community Corrections Partnership
Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Lt. Russell Liles (530) 542-6120 Background: Assembly Bill 109 established the California Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011, which allows for current non-violent, non-serious, and non-high-risk sex offenders, after they are released from California State prison, to be supervised at the local County level.
Instead of reporting to state parole officers, these offenders - known as the realigned population - report to local county probation officers.
Each county is required to establish a Community Corrections Partnership (CCP), composed of local justice system stakeholders such as Probation, the Sheriff, and the District Attorney, to develop and implement a plan for the use of AB 109 funds. These funds are intended to support community-based corrections, supervision, and evidence-based programs designed to reduce recidivism among the realigned population. On March 21, 2023, former South Lake Tahoe Police Department (SLTPD) Chief Stevenson executed a Memorandum of Understanding #7399 with the El Dorado County Probation Department, authorizing SLTPD’s participation in the agreement and establishing eligibility to access AB 109 funding. To date, SLTPD has not accessed these funds.
On October 28, 2025, the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors approved the Fiscal Year 2025– 26 Community Corrections Partnership budget, which included $20,000 for the South Lake Tahoe Police Department to partner with the El Dorado County Probation Department (EDCPD) to receive training and provide specialized enforcement services for the City of South Lake Tahoe in support of the CCP’s operational goal of reducing recidivism among the realigned population.
Issue and Discussion: This item is before the City Council for approval of the attached First Amendment to Memorandum of Understanding No. 7399 between the City of South Lake Tahoe Police Department and the El Dorado County Probation Department. Upon execution of this MOU amendment, the South Lake Tahoe Police Department may request up to $20,000 in funding for training and may provide specific enforcement and support operations directed toward the realigned population within the city limits and in unincorporated areas of El Dorado County. These enforcement operations will be provided at a base hourly regular or overtime rate for regular full-time or reserve officers during the Fiscal Year 2025–26 Community Corrections Partnership budget period.
Financial Implications: There will be no additional burden to the General Fund as a result of this agreement. Any Officers utilized for the specialized enforcement details or trainings have been budgeted as an existing allocation for the Police Department. The El Dorado County Probation District may reimburse the South Lake Tahoe Police Department for training cost or specialized 866
Council Agenda Report May 19, 2026 Page 2 of 2
enforcement details related to reducing recidivism among the realigned population in the amount up to $20,000.
Once received, these funds will be applied to account # 100 02110 34210 Environmental Considerations: The proposed action is not a “project” subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4) (creation of government funding mechanisms or government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment).
Policy Implications: This proposed agreement with El Dorado County Probation supports the following strategic priorities: Priority 3 – Public Safety 867

First Amendment to Memorandum of Understanding #7399 with El Dorado County Probation Department for FY 2025-26 Community Corrections Partnership with reimbursement from El Dorado County Probation Department to the City in the amount up to $20,000.00
BACKGROUND
A. Assembly Bill 109 created the California Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011, shifting supervision of non-violent, non-serious, and non-high-risk sex offenders from state parole to local county probation upon release from state prison. This population, known as the realigned population, is supervised at the county level rather than by state parole officers.
B. Each county must establish a Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) made up of local justice stakeholders, including Probation, the Sheriff, and the District Attorney, to plan and oversee the use of AB 109 funds. These funds support community-based corrections, supervision, and evidence-based programs aimed at reducing recidivism.
In March 2023, SLTPD entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with El Dorado County Probation, making the department eligible for AB 109 funding, though it has not yet utilized these funds.
C. In October 2025, the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors approved the FY 2025–26 CCP budget, allocating $20,000 for SLTPD to partner with El Dorado County Probation. The funding supports training and specialized enforcement services in South Lake Tahoe, aligning with the CCP’s goal of reducing recidivism among the realigned population.
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe:
1. Authorizes and directs the Chief of Police to execute the First Admendment to Memorandum of Understanding # 7399 for the FY 2025-26 Community Corrections Partnership Budget, which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A.”

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: May 19, 2026
Title: Ordinance Amending Shared Mobility Device Regulations (Second Reading) Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Members: Dan Bardzell, Assistant City Attorney; Jeff Roberson, Chief of Police
Background: On February 11, 2020, City Council adopted Ordinance 2020-1140 adding Chapter 4.185 to the South Lake Tahoe City Code (SLTCC). This ordinance regulates Shared Mobility Devices (SMDs). For purposes of this ordinance, a “shared mobility device” is defined, in pertinent part, as any wheeled transportation device, other than a bicycle, e-bicycle, automobile or motorcycle, by which a person can be propelled, moved or drawn; is accessed via an on-demand portal, whether a smartphone application, membership card, or similar method. On March 26, 2024, City Council adopted Ordinance 2024-1184 amending SLTCC Chapter 4.185 to add a requirement that SMDs be parked in corrals and adding additional requirements to implement the corrals.
At the City Council meeting on March 11, 2025, Council considered and declined to adopt an ordinance to further amend SLTCC Chapter 4.185 which would have caused a 50 percent reduction in SMDs permitted within the City. Instead, City Council directed staff to bring an item back with a presentation of potential options for increasing (1) the City’s liability protections from SMD accidents, (2) safety measures for SMD operations, and (3) updating shared mobility device operator insurance requirements. Staff brought this item back at the City Council meeting on June 3, 2025 at which time Council directed staff to incorporate the proposals into an ordinance and bring it back for Council’s consideration.
Staff brought this item back for a first reading of a proposed ordinance on March 10, 2026. At that time, Council declined to adopt the ordinance and instead requested additional amendments related to parking, permissible bikeways, and photo enforcement.
Staff brought the item back, with Council’s requested revisions, as a first reading of the proposed amendment which was considered and approved by City Council at the Council meeting on May 5, 2026. The present agenda item brings that proposed amendment back for a second reading and adoption.
Issue and Discussion:
City Council’s requested amendments are included in the proposed Ordinance, as summarized below.
881
Staff Report for City Council Meeting of May 19, 2026 2 of 6 Liability Protections
End User Agreement Liability Waivers
Both operators already utilize municipal waivers in their end user agreements including generic language in which riders waive liability against public entities for incidents which occur during a ride. Based on discussions with the operators, staff learned that some public entities require Bird and/or Lime to include waivers specific to the public entity. The proposed amendment would add permitting requirements in which operators must require riders to acknowledge waivers specifically waiving claims against the City.
Add a Permitting Requirement that Operators will Pay the City’s Attorney’s Fees SLTCC section 4.185.050(C)(2) requires the operator to agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City from liability for SMD accidents, including “any and all costs and expenses.” The proposed amendment would add language which requires the operator to expressly pay the City’s attorney’s fees for claims, lawsuits and similar matters. Although this section may already potentially cover attorney’s fees, adding clarifying language would provide additional protection.
Drivers License Re-Scanning
The proposed amendment would add permit requirements to require operators to make each rider re-scan their ID the first time they ride an SMD in the operator’s fleet within the City each calendar year.
Operator Insurance Updates
State law has been amended to revise the insurance requirements for SMD operators. To bring the City’s SMD framework into compliance with changes to state law, the proposed Ordinance revises City Code Chapter 4.185.050 as follows:
(1) increases the aggregate amount of liability insurance an operator must carry for all occurrences during the policy period from $4,000,000 to $5,000,000; (2) requires SMD operators procure insurance from an admitted insurer, or a nonadmitted insurer that is eligible to insure a home state insured; (3) requires operators to offer or make available, or confirm the rider maintains, insurance coverage for bodily injury or death suffered by a pedestrian when the injury or death involves the negligent conduct of the rider, of $10,000 for each occurrence, and for property damage to an assistive technology device, of $1,000 for each occurrence, and (4) make additional clarifying changes.
882
Staff Report for City Council Meeting of May 19, 2026 3 of 6 Engagement, Outreach, and Education
Modifications of SLTCC section 4.185.090 require operators to create a parking and safety education plan as part of their permit application. Operators should engage with riders to protect the safety of customers and all roadway users. Operators must educate riders about safety, and riding rules and etiquette at the time of sign-up. Operators must educate customers on how to appropriately park SMD devices. SMD apps must regularly inform and educate riders when they have ridden into prohibited riding areas such as Geofenced area, public parking facilities, public parks, and about staying off of sidewalks. Operators must inform their riders about special events, operational changes or scheduled and publicly-announced SLTPD enforcement actions through the mobile app. Operators must inform their riders that operating SMDs under the influence of drugs or alcohol is against the law. Operators must regularly deploy ambassadors and/or street teams to inform riders on safety and appropriate device use (including parking). Operators must conduct at minimum six community events or safety workshops per year, half of which must be targeted to less-served community members in multiple languages. Operators must host at minimum two learn to ride education opportunities per year. Engagements shall include a mix of virtual (digital media and in-app communications), physical, and in-person methods. This engagement should consider the needs and concerns of riders as well as non-riders. Operators shall plan for community outreach and engagement that shall include engagement activities and schedules, along with planned presentation, activities, and events with community-based organizations (CBO), business improvement districts (BIDS), and other key stakeholders. Operators must - on a monthly basis - report information from this outreach.
Safety Measures
Vehicle Code Enforcement
To address safety concerns centered on SMDs, staff has modified the following sections of the SLTCC.
4.185.020 (Definitions). Adds the definition of a Class III and Class IV bikeway. Although, CSLT has no Class IV bikeway, it is added to the definitions in the event that this class is subsequently built in the City.
SLTCC section 4.185.060 has been modified to add only Class IV bikeways. This section identifies a permit requirement to prohibit parking an SMD on such bikeways.
SLTCC section 4.185.060 (Issuance of Permits), has been modified from “City Manager” to “Chief of Police” wherein the authority sits for determining ride area prohibition (geofences).
An additional modification to 4.185.060 includes the addition of larger contrasting serial numbers on the SMDs for the purpose of unit identification in enforcement.
A modification of section 4.185.080 includes a consultation with the Director of Public Works to establish areas for ride and/or parking restrictions as well as parking corrals. 883
Staff Report for City Council Meeting of May 19, 2026 4 of 6 In conversations with the operators, they have agreed to facilitate holding riders accountable for ride violations, including vehicle code violations. Section 4.185.090 has been modified to reflect this agreement, in that the operators will provide rider information to assist with issuing administrative citations to riders.
SLTCC section 4.185.120 (Enforcement) has been modified to reinforce the use of photographic evidence from which to hold the operator and the rider accountable for violations of California Vehicle Code (“CVC”) sections 21228(b) (left turn must dismount), and 21235(e) (no passenger allowed). Additional potential CVC sections which were proposed to be added for photo enforcement in the previous version of the proposed ordinance have been removed from the version brought forward hereto. The photographic evidence would allow the operator sufficient information with which to provide rider information for the purpose of issuing a notice of such violations. The above SMD-specific sections of the California Vehicle Code have been added to clarify administrative citation through the use of photo enforcement.
The following additional issues were raised at the Council meeting on March 10, 2026:
1. Review and analyze possible updates to painting and signage on bikeways to ensure safety.
There was not sufficient time to conduct a comprehensive cost analysis before the present meeting but staff will work with Public Works to modify signage and paint to be consistent with the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices and aligned with existing signage on the Class I Shared Use path.
2. Enhancement of the corrals, including corral signage.
In line with guidance from City Council and collaboration with the operators, additional locations for corrals have been identified. The operators have agreed to “help” with the corral signage and location designation. However, while the undertone of help was to cover costs, that estimation or limit has yet to be defined. It might be more expedient for Public Works to physically mark the current corrals that are already defined and mark the additional corrals when those locations come online within the respective operator web applications. Finally, SLTPD and Public Works will collaborate on the corral signage language with the operators and identify the means of cost sharing.
3. Consider methods to further enforce the prohibition on riders under the age of 18.
The proposed amendment would add permit requirements to require operators to make each rider re-scan their ID the first time they ride an SMD in the operator’s fleet within the City each calendar year. This is intended to support the prohibition on underage riders.
While helpful to this goal, this mechanism will not achieve 100% compliance. Staff is not aware of any additional mechanism that will achieve that level of compliance. While the addition of a bicycle patrol officer may assist in reducing underage ridership, that result remains to be seen. Notably, SMDs are deployed from May 1 through October 31; a 884
Staff Report for City Council Meeting of May 19, 2026 5 of 6 season to which the temporary seasonal bicycle patrol officer may be limited to 1000 work hours.
Environmental Considerations: This Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.
Financial Implications:
The recommended amendments to increase liability and safety measures would minimize the City’s potential financial exposure for Shared Mobility Device accidents. It is not possible to forecast specific savings to the City associated with such measures.
While the amendments would not directly change the cost of permit fees and administrative citations issued under SLTCC Chapter 4.185, the amendments allow City Council the discretion to change such costs in the future by resolution thus making program cost recovery more flexible.
Policy Implications:
The proposed amended Ordinance would support Strategic Priority Three: Enhance Public Safety.
The following is provided for future policy guidance.
2025 Year End Summary:
Bird summarized the 2025 season as follows:
Rides in South Lake Tahoe: 52.221
Avg SMD rides per month 8703
Unique Users: 22,872
Avg ride distance: 1.45 miles (annual report)
Use by locals: 28%*
Peak use month: 17,192 in July (33% of all rides)
Lowest use month: 3,245 in October (6% of all rides)
Using Bird data to extrapolate the number of riders, as they suggest 28% are local riders finds that 14,621 rides of the total were locals. Additionally, Bird explains that
55.9% of those local riders are from Reno zip codes. Removing these 8173 Reno riders from the local total leaves 6448 rides from zip codes around the basin, including Truckee and North Lake Tahoe. Total rides on Bird from users with zip codes in the Basin, 12%. This is the direct comparison of local ridership percentage with Lime, below.

Ordinance 2026-XXX
Adopted by the City of South Lake Tahoe
City Council
May 19, 2026
An Ordinance Amending Chapter 4.185 of the South Lake Tahoe City Code (Shared Mobility Devices) to Increase the City’s Liability Protections and Safety Measures, and Revise Operator Insurance Requirements
FINDINGS
A. On February 11, 2020, City Council adopted Ordinance 2020-1140 (Shared Mobility Devices) adding Chapter 4.185 to the South Lake Tahoe City Code (SLTCC), which established a process for permitting and regulating operators and riders of shared mobility devices to achieve the City’s goals of encouraging alternative modes of transportation while protecting public health and safety.
B. On March 26, 2024, City Council adopted Ordinance 2024-1184 amending SLTCC Chapter
4.185 to add a requirement that shared mobility devices be parked in corrals and adding additional requirements to implement the corrals. These requirements were added to address public safety concerns due to improper parking of shared mobility devices.
C. At the City Council meeting on November 19, 2024, Mayor Pro Tem Wallace requested, and Councilmember Creegan seconded, that an item be brought back to City Council to adopt an ordinance to amend SLTCC Chapter 4.185 to reduce the maximum number of shared mobility devices an operator may deploy in the City.
D. At the City Council meeting on March 11, 2025, City Council considered and declined to adopt an ordinance to further amend Chapter 4.185 which would have caused a 50 percent reduction in shared mobility devices permitted within the City. Instead, City Council directed staff to bring an item back with a presentation of potential options for increasing the City’s liability protections, adding additional safety measures for shared mobility device operations, as well as updating operator insurance requirements.
E. City staff brought the requested item back at the City Council meeting on June 3, 2025 at which time City Council directed staff to incorporate the proposals into an ordinance and bring it back for City Council’s consideration. City staff prepared the requested item and included City Council's direction on increasing the City’s liability protections, adding additional safety measures for shared mobility device operations, as well as updating operator insurance requirements.
F. Staff brought this item back for a first reading of a proposed ordinance on March 10, 2026. At that time, Council declined to adopt the ordinance and instead requested additional amendments related to parking, permissible bikeways, and photo enforcement. The present Ordinance incorporates these requests with the remaining previously proposed amendments. 901
Ordinance 2026-XXX May 19, 2026 Page 2 of 11
G. California Vehicle Code section 21225 authorizes cities to regulate the parking and operation of these devices on pedestrian and bicycle facilities and city streets and highways, so long as such regulations are not in conflict with the California Vehicle Code.
Now, Therefore, the City Council of City of South Lake Tahoe does ordain as follows:

C. Any operator violating, permitting, or assisting the violation of any provisions of this chapter shall be subject to any and all civil remedies, including, without limitation, permit revocation. All remedies provided herein shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

SECTION 3. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk is directed to certify this Ordinance and cause it to be published in the manner required by law.

Agenda Item #:9
Agenda Item: Tahoe Bluefins Swim Club City Sponsorship
Executive Summary: The Parks & Recreation Department received a request from the Tahoe Bluefins Swim Club (Swim Club) to support the costs associated with the rental of the pool for their program.
Historically, the Swim Club received a discount of 55% on the rental plus the costs associated with staffing one of the two lifeguards necessary for their rental. These historic discounts have not been memorialized in an agreement and the Swim Club requested these costs be covered by the City at the new Multigenerational Recreation & Aquatics Center (Rec Center). Without these discounts, the Swim Club has expressed challenges to retaining participation levels in the program. Staff recommend Council support the costs associated for staffing one of the lifeguards along with increasing the discount to the Swim Club to 55% for their rental of the pool to support the Swim Club program for a six-month rental.
The total cost of the City sponsoring these costs is $8,343 from the General Fund. This will support a valued long-term rental while recognizing and accounting for the cost of using City facilities and associated labor. Staff propose a broad review of fees for the new Rec Center be brought back to Council at a future date to evaluate fees for the Swim Club in the context of all other recreation renters and users.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: Pass a Resolution authorizing the use of General Fund to sponsor facility rental fees and staff labor for the Tahoe Bluefins Swim Club totaling $8,343 for a sixmonth agreement.

Meeting Date: May 19, 2026
Title: Tahoe Bluefins Swim Club City Sponsorship
Location: Multigenerational Recreation & Aquatics Center Responsible Staff Member: John Stark, Parks and Recreation Director (530) 307-9145 Background: Approximately six months ago, Parks & Recreation staff met with members of the Tahoe Bluefins Swim Club Board to discuss the new fee schedule for the new Recreation & Aquatics Center. It was discussed that the prior fee arrangement the Swim Club had was not part of a formal City Council-approved agreement or adopted fee structure. The historical discount and City-covered lifeguard support were not memorialized in a written agreement approved by the City Council and therefore could not be continued administratively at the new facility. At that time, staff advised the Swim Club that if the organization believed it could not operate under the new fee structure, it could submit financial information and supporting documentation to staff and staff could review and prepare an item requesting the City sponsoring the Swim Club program. Staff do not have authority to approve subsidized facility use, waive adopted fees, or provide City-funded staffing outside the approved fee structure. Any such request would require City Council review and approval.
The Parks and Recreation Department received a request in April 2026 from the Swim Club to support the costs associated with the rental of the pool for their program. The Swim Club has expressed financial challenges with the fees they would pay with the existing fee schedule that would challenge the viability of their program.
Without the fee and staff sponsorship, the Swim Club has expressed challenges to retaining participation levels in the program.
Issue and Discussion:
Staff recommend Council support the costs associated for staffing one of the lifeguards along with increasing the discount to the Swim Club to 55% for their rental of the pool to support the Swim Club program for a six-month rental agreement. City Council authorization is required to allow the Parks and Recreation Department to apply General Fund support toward the facility rental costs and staffing of one lifeguard to support sponsoring the Swim Club rental. This approach enables the City to support a valued long-term rental while still recognizing and accounting for the cost of using City facilities and labor totaling $8,343 sponsored by the City. 914
Council Agenda Report- May 19, 2026 Page 2 of 2
Staff propose continuing to evaluate the fees for the Swim Club in the context of all other recreation renters and users for a broader review of the fees to be brought back to City Council at a future date.
Financial Implications: Rental fees for the pool with the 25% nonprofit discount and full cost of paying for two lifeguards total $18,750.96 for six months. Changing the discount from the nonprofit rate to the 55% discount and covering the cost of one lifeguard would reduce these fees to $10,407.96 and would be subsidized for the Swim Club from the General Fund. The Swim Club will pay $10,407.96 total including the cost of one lifeguard and pool rental for their rental for the six-month agreement.
Environmental Considerations: The Swim Club sponsorship is categorically exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the program will allow for the normal operations of existing facilities for public gatherings for which the facilities were designed (CEQA Guidelines section 15323 – Normal Operations of Facilities for Public Gatherings).
Policy Implications: Strategic Plan Priorities supported by sponsoring the Swim Club include:
7.7 Continue to improve access for people of all abilities to all public spaces. 915

A. The City’s Parks and Recreation Department (City) received a request from the Tahoe Bluefins Swim Club (Swim Club) to support the costs associated with the rental of the pool for their program.
B. Historically, the Swim Club received a discount of 55% along with supporting the costs associated with staffing one of the two lifeguards for their rental. This has not been memorialized in an agreement previously.
C. The Swim Club has expressed financial challenges with the fees they would pay with the existing fee schedule that would challenge the viability of their program.

F. City Council authorization is required to allow the Parks and Recreation Department to apply General Fund support toward the facility rental costs and staffing of one lifeguard to support sponsoring the Swim Club rental. This approach enables the City to support a valued longterm rental while still recognizing and accounting for the cost of using City facilities and labor totaling $8,343 sponsored by the City.
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of South Lake Tahoe:

Agenda Item #:10
Agenda Item: Amendment to Parking Agreement with Heavenly Mountain Resort Executive Summary: On 3/10/26, the city council asked for a report on usage of the Heavenly Parking Agreement. They additionally asked for information on potential safety concerns arising out of the agreement. After conducting this assessment, two areas of concern were found which can be addressed by amending the agreement. One safety concern was found arising from citizen complaints. The concerns came from residents of 1390 Ski Run Blvd. The complainants noted the parked vehicles created a substantial visual obstruction when exiting their complex. One complainant mentioned nearly getting in a traffic collision due to this obstruction. They also noted the impact was greater with snow buildup on the roadway. This location on Ski Run Blvd, located between Needle Peak Rd and Regina Rd, has residences on the west side of the roadway. The east side of the roadway has no residences.
This would make it an ideal place to relocate the on-street parking to eliminate the visual safety issue and reduce resident/visitor conflicts. The second safety concern arose from a heavy snow day which led the PD to close Ski Run Blvd and Keller Rd due to dangerous road conditions. When the roadways are not closed in these conditions, multiple vehicle collisions occur. Under section 3 of the existing agreement, Heavenly has been designated to plow, de-ice, and sand the roadways used by them for onstreet parking on days they are used. These requirements state Heavenly “shall ensure that travel lanes to accommodate two-way traffic are maintained in these areas whenever they are used for resort parking.†Heavenly might view this obligation as an absolute requirement despite dangerous road conditions and encourage employees to make it to work in order to carry out this function. The safety of motorists and pedestrians supersede Heavenly’s need to fulfil its obligations on days which the PD closes Ski Run Blvd and Keller Rd. Heavenly employees already on site can still perform these functions, but we don’t want other employees not already at work encouraged to come up the closed roads.
Amending section 3, paragraph 1 of the agreement to add guidance regarding roadway closure operations would clarify Heavenly’s obligations and promote roadway safety.
Requested Action / Suggested Motions: 1) Pass a Motion authorizing and directing the Mayor to execute the Amendment to the Parking Agreement with Heavenly Mountain Resort; and 2) Pass a Resolution amending the seasonal parking restrictions on certain streets in the Heavenly Valley Neighborhood (replaces Resolution 2025-099).

Meeting Date: May 19, 2026
Title: Evaluation of the Heavenly Valley Parking Agreement for the 2025/2026 Ski Season.
Location: Police Department
Responsible Staff Member: Lieutenant Doug Sentell, (530) 542-6520 Background:
The city entered into the Heavenly Valley Parking agreement with Heavenly Mountain Resort (Heavenly) for use of city street parking during the ski season for overflow parking. The agreement, Motion 2025-128 / C-306-2025, was agreed to by the city council on 12/09/2025.
Issue and Discussion:
During the agenda planning calendar discussion of the March 10, 2026 city council meeting, Council Member Horgan requested an assessment of this agreement, which Council Member Jinkens seconded.
The information requested was for the following:
1. End of season report of on-street parking usage from Heavenly
2. Parking enforcement by the PD
3. Safety concerns, if any, arising from the on-street parking Note: The 2025/2026 ski season was affected by low snowfall totals. This likely had an effect on the results of this assessment.
Findings:
1. Heavenly reported parking 2,542 cars on the street over 39 separate days. They averaged 65 cars a day for each of these days
2. The PD issued 56 citations in the on-street parking area from 11/01/25 through 3/22/26. This placed the average at only 1.4 citations per usage day.
3. One safety concern was found arising from citizen complaints. The concerns came from residents of 1390 Ski Run Blvd. The complainants noted the parked vehicles created a substantial visual obstruction when exiting their complex. One complainant mentioned nearly getting in a traffic collision due to this obstruction. They also noted the impact was greater with snow buildup on the roadway
This location on Ski Run Blvd, located between Needle Peak Rd and Regina Rd, has residences on the west side of the roadway. The east side of the roadway has no residences. This would make it an ideal place to relocate the on-street parking to eliminate the visual safety issue and reduce resident/visitor conflicts.
An additional safety concern arose from a heavy snow day which led the PD to close Ski Run Blvd and Keller Rd due to dangerous road conditions. When the roadways are not closed in these conditions, multiple vehicle collisions occur.
919

Under section 3 of the existing agreement, Heavenly has been designated to plow and sand the roadways used by them for on-street parking on days they are used. These requirements state Heavenly “shall ensure that travel lanes to accommodate two-way traffic are maintained in these areas whenever they are used for resort parking.”
Heavenly might view this obligation as an absolute requirement despite dangerous road conditions and encourage employees to make it to work in order to carry out this function. The PD views the safety of motorists and pedestrians supersede Heavenly’s need to fulfil its obligations on days which the PD closes Ski Run Blvd and Keller Rd. Heavenly employees already on site can still perform these functions, but we don’t want other employees not already at work encouraged to come up the closed roads.
Amending section 3, paragraph 1 of the agreement to add guidance regarding roadway closure operations would clarify Heavenly’s obligations and promote roadway safety.
Recommendations:
Based on analysis of the parking location, input from complainants, and a meeting with Heavenly Director of Base Experience Brian Bigley, I recommend the following:
Amend section 2A of the Heavenly Parking Agreement (C-306-2025) as follows:
Perpendicular parking spaces on the west east side of Ski Run Boulevard between Needle Peak Road and Regina Road, as shown on Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated by reference. Heavenly shall maintain visible markings and make best efforts to prohibit parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.
Amend section 3, paragraph one of the Heavenly Parking Agreement (C-306-2025) as follows:
In order to assist the City with timely snow removal and application of deicer and abrasives on the streets that are covered by this Agreement, snow removal, sanding, and deicing will be primarily performed by Heavenly, using its own equipment, on the roads where non-exclusive use of onstreet parking is granted to Heavenly, specified in Section 2, whenever these areas are used for resort parking. Heavenly shall ensure that travel lanes to accommodate two-way traffic are maintained in these areas whenever they are used for resort parking. During periods of severe weather which the Police Department closes Ski Run Blvd and/or Keller Road, Heavenly will not be penalized for an inability to perform these duties in a timely manner due to road closure. Heavenly understands when conditions cause the roadways to be closed, it can impact its operations.
Financial Implications:
There will be no impact to the general fund.
Environmental Considerations: The proposed action is not a “project” subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4) (creation of government funding mechanisms or government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment).

Amendment to Heavenly Valley Parking Agreement C-306-2025 AMENDMENT No. 1 TO THE PARKING AGREEMENT WITH
HEAVENLY MOUNTAIN RESORT
The Parking Agreement, C-306-2025, entered on December 9, 2025, between the City of South Lake Tahoe, a municipal corporation ("CITY") and Heavenly Mountain Resort (“Heavenly") is hereby amended as set forth below.
RECITALS
A. On December 9, 2025, the City entered into the agreement with Heavenly which allowed them to use certain designated on-street parking locations for their operations. The agreement also tasked Heavenly with “snow removal, sanding, and deicing” as their primary responsibility in the areas which they park their cars pursuant to this agreement.
B. During the agenda planning calendar discussion on the March 10, 2026 city council meeting, Council Member Horgan requested an assessment of this agreement, which Council Member Jinkens seconded.
C. I, Lt, Doug Sentell, gathered the information regarding the assessment. The findings are attached in the staff report.
D. A safety issue was found which needed to be addressed regarding parking on Ski Run Blvd. between Needle Peak Rd and Regina Rd. Residents in this section reported visual obscurement due to the vehicles parked on its (west) side of the roadway. They reported near-miss collisions.
E. An assessment of the area showed no residences on the opposite (east) side of Ski Run Blvd. Moving the parking to the opposite side of the roadway would remove the visual obscurement to the residences on the west side of the roadway.
F. An assessment of operations during roadway closures found the need to amend the agreement to give clarification to Heavenly on expectations of duties during events which close Ski Run Blvd. and Keller Road.
AGREEMENT
Section 2(A) of the Heavenly Valley Parking Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

Adopted by the City of South Lake Tahoe
City Council
May 19, 2026
Establishing Seasonal or Permanent No Parking Restrictions on Certain Streets in the Heavenly Valley Neighborhoods
(Replaces Resolution 2025-099)
BACKGROUND
A. As part of the ongoing effort to improve parking and traffic conditions in the Heavenly Valley neighborhoods, especially during winter conditions and the Heavenly ski season, the Public Works Director/City Traffic Engineer recommends establishing certain residential streets as no parking areas or Residential Parking Permit (RPP) from November 1 to May 1.
B. Under South Lake Tahoe City Code section 4.25.300(C) and California Vehicle Code section 22507(a), the City Council is authorized to establish no parking areas by resolution and enforce the no parking areas once appropriate signage is installed.
C. On September 15, 2023, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2023-1178 to authorize residential permit parking under California Vehicle Code section 22507(a), which the Public Works Director has determined is appropriate for this area because non-resident vehicles do substantially and regularly interfere with the use of the majority of the available on-street spaces by adjacent residents; this interference occurs at regular and significant daily or weekly intervals; the volume of non-resident vehicles in these certain areas cause unreasonable traffic hazards, noise, and trash impacts; a shortage of reasonably available and convenient residential related parking spaces exist in these areas; and alternative solutions are not feasible or practical.
D. On August 8, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution 2023-074, establishing No Parking and Residential Parking Permits on Certain Roadways in Heavenly Valley Neighborhood. The resolution has most recently been amended with adoption of Resolution 2024-059.
E. As a result of City Council approval of a Parking Agreement with Heavenly Resort, modifications on Saddle Road, Keller Road, and Ski Run Blvd, Resolution 2025-099 was adopted on December 9, 2025 to replace Resolution No. 2024-059. 924

Report to City Council
Meeting Date: May 19, 2026
Title: Long Term Rental Incentive Program Update and Request for Additional Funding Location: Citywide
Responsible Staff Member: Lydia Zuniga, Associate Management Analyst Background: On October 19, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-082 appropriating $500,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to initiate a long-term rental incentive grant pilot program. The Resolution authorized $72,000 for program administration, $14,000 for marketing cost, $200,000 for incentive grants to property owners. Leaving a remaining balance of $214,000 for a property management incentive program. During the meeting staff was also directed to execute a sole source Professional Service Agreement (PSA) with Landing Locals to administer the pilot program.
During the City Council meeting of August 9, 2022, staff provided an update on the status of the Lease to Locals program. The update included the success of the program, modifications to the guidelines, including the recommendation to allocate $214,000 towards the continuance of the Lease to Locals program, an extension of the program until December 2023, with a request to return to Council with an amended PSA with Landing Locals; to allow for the continuation of the administration of the program. Shortly after the update, Landing Locals rebranded and changed their name to Placemate. This action included $105,000 towards administrative cost and $9,000 towards marketing efforts.
At the November 21, 2023 City Council meeting, council approved the amended Professional Services Agreement (PSA) authorizing the mayor to enter into Amendment No. 2. This Amendment is to continue administration of the “Lease to Locals” Rental Incentive Grant Program until January 15, 2025 to coincide with the administrative billing cycle. An additional $91,000 was allocated to the administration of the program and $9,000 was allocated towards marketing.
On October 22, 2024, during Councilmember Reports and Comments, Councilmember Robbins requested a change in the Lease to Locals Program Guidelines to include a six-month lease option for half of the grant. Mayor Bass seconded the item to be brought back to City Council on November 19, 2024.
At the November 19, 2024, City Council meeting, City Council directed staff to renew the contract with Placemate for twelve months and to amend the Lease to Locals Program Guidelines to allow six-month leases for half of the incentive.
939
Council Agenda Report May 19, 2026 Page 2 of 4
On January 28, 2025, City Council approved the Resolution No. 2025-005, authorizing the budget appropriation of $90,000 and authorized the Mayor to execute Amendment Number 3, to the Professional Services Agreement to continue administration of the “Lease to Locals” Rental Incentive Grant Program until January 31, 2026. The action also included amending Program Guidelines for the addition of a 6-month lease option and increasing the incentive grant amount to $4,500 per qualified tenant for a 12-month lease and $2,000 per qualified tenant for a 6-month lease.
On June 3, 2025, City Council was provided a quarterly update on the Lease to Locals Program.
During the meeting staff highlighted that as of the day of the report, staff had only approved 2 grants during 2025. However, shortly after the council meeting, staff received several grants.
On August 12, 2025, City Council was provided another update on the Lease to Locals Program.
The update included, the remaining balance for new grants, number of grants provide and number of people housed since the program started. During the report, staff included four (4) separate options for Council to consider regarding the future operation of the Program. Council voted on Option one (1). End the Professional Services Agreement with Placemate in 30 days. Bring Program management in-house. Change the name to Long-Term Rental Incentive Program.
On February 10, 2026, the staff report highlighted the success of the program since the program was brought in-house, the report included marketing efforts at no cost to the city.
On May 5, 2026, the staff report outlined that the remaining balance for new grants was $15,513.69, during that time, staff had assisted 64 and housed 153 people including children.
Since the last report, staff reviewed and approved another grant, bringing the remaining balance for new grants to $6,513.69. We are in the process of reviewing an additional grant application, which will exhaust the remaining balance.
As of the date of this report, the program has assisted 65 households and housed 155 people (including children).
The table below demonstrates the breakdown of how many households and people have been assisted since the end of 2021.
940
Council Agenda Report May 19, 2026 Page 3 of 4
Since the program was brought in-house, it has averaged about one grant application approval per month, which is an improvement to the operation of the program.
The table below outlines the funding for the LTR Incentive Program.
Below are summarized options for the Council to consider regarding the future operation of the Program.
Option Summary Pro Con
Option
1 Allocate additional funding for
incentive grants and continue with
the Long-Term Rental Incentive
Program in-house and pass a
Resolution to allocate an additional
$80,000 for the program.
Program continuity
Additional funding is
required for incentive
grants. Source of
funding will be as
follows:
$50,000 from 271-
03113-48041 and
$30,000 from the
General Fund
Undesignated Excess
Reserve Revenue
account.
Option
2 End the Long-Term Incentive
Program and gradually close the
second grants.
Program completed
No additional properties
onboarded and Program
would cease operation.
The 271 account is the City’s substandard housing relocation account and is funded through substandard housing inspection fees. Staff recommends that the City Council pass a motion allocating an additional $80,000 for the program to continue operation consistent with strategic plan priority number 1.
Issue and Discussion:
The intent of the LTR Incentive Program and ongoing efforts is to unlock existing housing for local workers.
Since the program started in late 2021, the program has unlocked 65 households, housed 155 residents.
Fifty-five out of the 65 grants issues have been closed and completed. Out of the 55 closed grants, 35 renewed the lease for another year. The 2022-2027 Housing Element states that there’s also a need to provide quality, moderate income housing for year-round residents. As of today, the LTR Incentive program is the only active program within the city that’s gear towards Moderate Income level residents. 941
Council Agenda Report May 19, 2026 Page 4 of 4
Financial Implications: The program will be funded through a combination of substandard housing fees and General Fund Undesignated Excess Reserve. Using this combination of funds is intended to allow the program to continue while minimizing direct impact to the General Fund. However, the City’s substandard housing relocation account cannot provide sustained funding, and future operation of the program will likely require funding from the General Fund.
Environmental Considerations: The recommendation in this report is not a project under CEQA, because it does not involve any commitment to a specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment, as contemplated by Title 14, California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(2) and 15378(b)(4) and is, therefore, not subject to CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3).
Policy Implications: The effort to increase the use of existing housing stock for long-term rental is identified as priority Number 1 items 1.6 and 1.7 in the City’s 2025-2030 Strategic Plan.
The Long-Term Rental Incentive program is also consistent with the following adopted General Plan Housing Element policies and programs:
Policy 1-1 The City shall adopt programs, ordinances, incentives, land use plans and other regulatory mechanisms that provide opportunities for the private sector to address the housing needs of citizens of all economic levels.
Policy 2-3 The City shall encourage a range of housing options so that people who work in South Lake Tahoe can choose to live in the City.
Policy 2-5 The City shall recognize that it will become difficult to attract employees if they cannot afford to purchase or rent housing in South Lake Tahoe. The City shall encourage and support programs and activities that create a robust local economy that provides residents with good paying employment and the means to purchase and/or rent housing in the City.
Program 3-9 Landlord/Tenant Matching Program
