Recommendation conditioned on the removal of some of the previously allowed uses in the proposed Mountain Adventure Camp.
OLYMPIC VALLEY, Calif. (Sept. 5, 2024) – Today, the Placer County Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the Village at Palisades Tahoe Specific Plan to the Placer County Board of Supervisors. The recommendation came with the condition of removal of some of the previous “allowed uses” in the proposed Mountain Adventure Camp facility. In addition, the facility’s definition has been modified to exclude a “water park” and themed attractions.
“We respect and appreciate the Placer County Planning Commissioners’ decision to recommend approval of the Village at Palisades Tahoe Specific Plan. It is the right plan for Olympic Valley and stands to provide tremendous benefits to our entire region. Throughout this process, we have listened to the community and incorporated their feedback into the plan. The modifications we agreed to today further reaffirm our good faith intention that the Mountain Adventure Camp will offer uses that align with the culture of the valley.”
– Dee Byrne, Palisades Tahoe president and COO
The Village at Palisades Tahoe Specific Plan, which will be considered for approval by the Placer County Board of Supervisors later this year, reflects significant public input gathered during over 300 community meetings and participation in the process by more than 5,000 interested individuals.

The plan, which would be built almost entirely on existing asphalt parking lots and other disturbed areas, proposes up to 850 lodging units, including a mixture of hotel, condo hotel, fractional ownership, and timeshare units. It also includes new, dedicated on-site workforce housing that will house 300 employees, over 450 new employee parking spaces, new parking structures that will maintain all existing day skier parking spaces, restoration of Washeshu Creek, approximately $5 million to support parks and recreation in Olympic Valley, and an additional $7 million in TOT revenue to contribute to regional workforce housing, transportation, tourism mitigation, and other regional priorities.
