Land Coverage (TRPA)
Tahoe Regional Planning Agency impervious-coverage budget for this parcel
TRPA caps how much of each Tahoe Basin parcel can be covered by impervious surfaces — buildings, driveways, decks. Existing coverage is TRPA's satellite estimate; allowed coverage uses TRPA's verified land class when one is on file, otherwise TRPA's estimate — data: TRPA GIS / Tahoe Open Data, LT Info. The only authoritative determination of coverage and land capability is a Land Capability Verification through TRPA; actual allowable coverage can differ due to verifications, transfers, banked coverage, or deed restrictions.

California FAIR Plan fire policy + a DIC wrap policy, the usual Tahoe setup
Estimate from this ZIP's California FAIR Plan rates (Plan data as of 6/30/2026, with the 29.1% increase effective 10/15/2026) on an estimated rebuild cost, plus a DIC policy at 20–40% of the FAIR premium. Not a bindable quote; a local broker quote depends on the home's age, roof, defensible space and claims history.
