Tahoe Regional Planning Agency
The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency’s vision is for a Lake environment that is sustainable, healthy and safe for the community and future generations. Under the its Bi-State Compact, TRPA is directed to “establish environmental threshold carrying capacities and to adopt and enforce a regional plan and implementing ordinances which will achieve and maintain such capacities while providing opportunities for orderly growth and development consistent with such capacities,” and to “ensure an equilibrium between the region’s natural endowment and its manmade environment." As a regional planning organization for Lake Tahoe, TRPA’s most strategic role is as a partnership builder for delivery of environmental gain. TRPA works across a multiplicity of jurisdictions with concurrent responsibility and overlapping authority whose interests differ across legal boundary lines. TRPA’s strategic role is to weave together a successful environmental tapestry of interests consistent with competing political demands. Only by building the necessarily broad partnerships that can deliver action needed to achieve tangible environmental gain will the Region ever reach and maintain a sustainable foundation.
