Related California, in partnership with Saint Joseph Community Land Trust, will develop a 248-unit affordable family development spread over four phases in South Lake Tahoe. The parcels were awarded to the partnership via a competitive RFQ/P selection undertaken by the State of California as part of Governor Newsom's Executive Order to build affordable housing on state-owned excess sites throughout the state of California.  Sugar Pine Village is the first competitively awarded project under the Executive Order and the first to commence construction.

The first phase of 68 affordable apartments was completed in September 2024. The next phase of 60 affordable apartments is under construction and slated for completion in 2025.

Sugar Pine Village is the largest residential development to be entitled in South Lake Tahoe.  Some of the phases will utilize modular construction, an innovative construction method that is well-suited for Tahoe's short building season.
