Huntoon Real Estate Newsletter - September 2010 Greetings from Karen & Robbie Huntoon Can you believe the kids are already back in school and that Labor Day weekend is upon us? Time flies. With summer’s late start, the season simply seemed too short. Old Man Winter knocked on our door last week bringing some cold weather (fleece jackets were pulled out of storage) but it appears it will be fantastically beautiful for Labor Day weekend. Real Estate sales are moving along and closed sales in August were higher than July. We saw an increase across the board for sales in Truckee and the greatest increase was experienced in Tahoe Donner. Single family homes sales in Tahoe Donner were 84% higher in August than in July. If I got a penny for every time I said that that there are some great deals in Tahoe Donner, I'd be rich! Buyers, now is the time. Take advantage of some of the great listings before the sellers take them off the market to put them in ski lease rental programs. We are here to assist you ...anytime. Call Robbie at 530-412-0583 or Karen at 530-448-3624. We would love to help you and your friends/referrals. Karen & Robbie |

Just Say No! Tahoe Donner's Proposed Mis-Use of Open Space Thank you to all of you that have already responded. Our strength is in our numbers. It has been almost unanimous that people in Tahoe Donner savor their open space and care about keeping it open. If you haven't already, please join our efforts. Just send an email to SaveTDTrails.com and mention your name and Tahoe Donner address. You will be added to the petition to oppose the use of open space for a Forestry/maintenance facility. We have already received hundreds of signatures. Whether you live in the heart of Tahoe Donner, adjacent to the Golf Course or on a street that backs to open space this information should be of interest to you. Read on... Recently, the Board at Tahoe Donner has begun making plans to construct a new $3.1 million dollar Forestry Department building. Instead of rebuilding on its current site on Northwoods Boulevard they have proposed four alternative sites. The potential four sites under consideration are: (1) Northwoods Boulevard, next door to the Golf Course Maintenance facility, (2) the land at the end of Alder Creek Road an eighth of a mile beyond the pavement (open space area), (3) Skislope Way, at the green gate trailhead, and (4) Skislope Way, 1,000 feet on Skislope Way above the green gate trailhead. Tahoe Donner describes this building as: “The Proposed new building would not be a fine finished facility like Trout Creek Recreation Center or The Lodge; rather the finish would be utilitarian, similar to the current Golf Course Maintenance facility.” The majority of the square footage of the proposed 2 level facility (6,600 square feet) is identified for Forestry operational use, including work bays; large equipment storage; ATV, splitter and chipper storage; flammables storage; material storage bins; wood pile and office space including three restrooms (men’s, women’s and unisex), kitchen, conference room and locker room with showers, washer and dryer. The perimeter of the facility will be encompassed by a security fence with sliding metal gates. Property owners in Tahoe Donner have indicated through a survey conducted by the Tahoe Donner Association that open space is the number one most important aspect of Tahoe Donner. The proposed site at the end of Alder Creek is an open space area. For Tahoe Donner to consider building the new Forestry Facility at this location is outrageous. The Alder Creek site is the most used open space in all of Tahoe Donner. It is used year round with cross country ski trails in the winter, hiking, biking and equestrian center uses in the summer. The actual site on Alder Creek is in the center of the most used trail (Lions Leap) within the cross country ski area. Tahoe Donner’s plan is moving along fast so now is the time to oppose their sprawl into our open spaces. Once they get a project like this in place there may be no stopping the future use and development into these treasured and extremely limited spaces. The link to "Just Say No" (upper left) will provide links to Tahoe Donner's website with site proposals, elevations, etc. Thank you for your support! |
