What is the TRPA?

The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency is a government agency created in an effort to reverse and manage the adverse effects development and human activity have had on the clarity and quality of Lake Tahoe. Its purpose of overseeing all development within the Tahoe Basin plays a large role in issues regarding Real Estate in the Lake Tahoe area.
