Tahoe Regional Planning Agency impervious-coverage budget for this parcel

Above base allowance

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.
