May. 17, 2024 - After around a decade of efforts, the Tahoe National Forest is finally getting a new headquarters building to replace its smaller and aging facility. Nevada County Supervisors have approved a resolution accepting and executing a 50-year lease agreement worth $2.6 million dollars for the county on a nine-acre parcel adjacent to the Juvenile Hall property. It’ll be located off Highway 49, and still near Nevada City and also across the road from the Rood Center. Acting Tahoe National Forest Supervisor Matt Jedra told the Board that they’ll have one lease to deal with, compared to the current situation.
Matt Jedra also noted that the construction cost has nearly doubled since pre-COVID, to around $25 million dollars and they’re pursuing federal funding. Supervisor Hardy Bullock also likes the potential for good accessibility.
If all goes well, it’s hoped the 23,000 square-foot facility will open sometime in 2027.
