The 39° North Project, a proposed redevelopment in the center of Kings Beach, marks a new phase in Placer County’s long-term planning for the area. Initially framed around community goals such as walkability, housing, and support for local businesses—as outlined in the Kings Beach Vision Plan (2013) and the Placer County Tahoe Basin Area Plan—the current proposal includes a hotel, townhomes, workforce housing and limited leasable commercial space. County officials describe the project as part of an effort to stimulate local economic activity. At the same time, residents have raised concerns about loss of community benefit, affordability, commercial zoned land, and potential environmental impacts.
Now is the time to explore the timeline, track public investments, and have your voice heard—your input is critical in shaping what comes next.

TAHOE BASIN AREA PLAN TOWN CENTER & 39° NORTH MIXED-USE REDEVELOPMENT (AKA: Kings Beach Center & Eastern Gateway Project)
📜 Decade of Decisions: The Journey to Revitalize Kings Beach Center (2004–2018)
Setting the Stage: How Kings Beach Center Came Under County Stewardship
Before the current redevelopment vision took shape, the Kings Beach Center site went through more than a decade of foundational steps including acquisitions, changes in agency oversight, and long-range planning. This period laid the groundwork for the site’s transition from private to public control and the eventual 39° North proposal.
2004–2008: Acquisition by Private Developer
Between 2004 and 2008, properties within what is now the Kings Beach Center were acquired by a private developer. This marked the beginning of renewed interest in revitalizing the area, aligned with longstanding community planning goals.
2004–2012: Redevelopment Agency Support
During this period, the Placer County Redevelopment Agency (RDA) supported implementation of the 1996 Kings Beach Community Plan. The agency’s involvement focused on stimulating redevelopment and improving local economic conditions.
2012: Dissolution of Redevelopment Agencies
In 2012, California dissolved all RDAs through state legislation. A Successor Agency was established to manage the remaining assets and obligations, including oversight of the Kings Beach Center properties.
2014: Approval of Long-Range Property Management Plan
In February 2014, the Successor Agency approved a Long-Range Property Management Plan (LRPMP), which outlined potential land uses including mixed-use development, consistent with existing planning documents.
2014: Acquisition of Kings Beach Center by Successor Agency
Later in 2014, the Successor Agency acquired the Kings Beach Center site in lieu of foreclosure, facilitating public control and enabling future planning efforts.
2015: Property Transferred to Placer County
In 2015, in accordance with the LRPMP, ownership of the Kings Beach Center was transferred to Placer County, allowing the County to pursue direct redevelopment initiatives aligned with community goals.

Reimagining Kings Beach: A Vision for a Thriving, Walkable Community (2016)
In 2016, Placer County and its Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency issued three Requests for Interest (RFIs) to solicit developer proposals for three publicly owned sites in Kings Beach: the Kings Beach Center, the Eastern Gateway Property, and Town Center South. The goal was to support community-oriented redevelopment consistent with the Kings Beach Vision Plan (2013) and the Placer County Tahoe Basin Area Plan.
These RFIs sought concepts that emphasized:
- Mixed-use development integrating commercial, civic, and residential uses
- Environmental sustainability and low-impact design
- Walkability and public benefit
The effort followed the Kings Beach Commercial Core Improvement Project (KBCCIP), a $50 million infrastructure initiative that improved stormwater systems, roads, and sidewalks—laying the groundwork for future infill development.
🏘️ Properties Offered for Redevelopment:
Kings Beach Center
- 📍 Location: Across from Kings Beach State Recreation Area
- 📐 Size: ~3.5 acres (16 parcels)
- 🛣️ Frontage: 625 feet on North Lake Blvd
- 🔍 2016 RFI Vision: Lodging, mixed-use commercial, civic space
Eastern Gateway
- 📍 Location: North Lake Blvd & Chipmunk Street
- 📐 Size: ~1.3 acres (10 parcels)

- 📍 Location: North Lake Boulevard corridor
- 📐 Size: ~0.9 acres (4 parcels)
- 🛣️ Frontage: 125 feet

Though each site could be developed independently, the County encouraged integrated proposals to enhance coordination and long-term value. A long term resident stated that the “Town Center South received two responses from local development teams. King Beach Center received two responses one from a local development team another from a developer with land holdings in Kings Beach.”

📊 Testing the Vision: A Feasibility Study for Kings Beach Center (2017)
In 2017, Placer County commissioned a strategic feasibility study to evaluate potential redevelopment options for the Kings Beach Center site. The goal was to determine whether a community-aligned vision—previously outlined in local plans and the 2016 RFIs—could be financially viable.
📅 May 2017 – County Engages JLL for Strategic Assessment
Placer County retained global real estate advisory firm Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) to analyze market potential, development configurations, and property valuation scenarios for the 3.5-acre site.
🔍 Key Findings from the JLL Report:
- Viable Use Case: A mixed-use hotel with ground-floor retail and civic space was identified as the most feasible development scenario.
- Property Valuation: Estimated at $2.3 to $3.5 million, depending on final development mix and market conditions.
- Market Insights: Cited strong regional demand for boutique lodging in walkable, amenity-rich town centers.
- Public/Civic Uses: Recommended integration of community-serving features like a library or civic plaza.
This report helped shape the County’s strategy heading into formal negotiations with prospective developers, including defining expectations for site use and community benefit.

🏨 Turning Vision Into Commitment: The First Purchase Agreements (2018)
In early 2018, the Kings Beach redevelopment effort entered a new phase with formal purchase agreements and the selection of a developer.
📅 February 6, 2018 – Purchase Agreement for Kings Beach Center
Placer County’s Board of Supervisors approved a $3 million Purchase and Sale Agreement with Kings Beach Center LLC, led by developer Craig Clark, for the 3.5-acre Kings Beach Center site.
Notably, the County accepted an unsolicited proposal rather than conducting a public Request for Proposals (RFP) process. This decision raised concerns about limited transparency and public input.
📋 Proposed Development Vision (2018):
- Hotel: 80–150 rooms to support local tourism and economic growth
- Residential: 10–40 condominiums
- Retail: Up to 15,000 sq. ft. of leasable commercial space
- Civic Use: Approximately 2,000 sq. ft. for a potential library or community room
- Office: Flexible commercial or professional office space
📢 Community Reaction:
- Over 800 residents signed a petition urging the County to slow down and ensure more public review.
- Local developers and residents questioned the absence of an RFP and the transparency of the developer selection process.
- Media coverage spotlighted community concerns around oversight and public accountability.
📰 Media Coverage:
- Affordable housing project coming to Kings Beach (Sierra Sun, Feb 9, 2018) – Includes quotes from developer Craig Clark on housing and local job creation.

🏘️ Expanding the Vision: Eastern Gateway Purchase (2019)
In 2019, Placer County’s Successor Agency approved the $1.1 million sale of the 1.3-acre Eastern Gateway Property—located at the eastern entrance to Kings Beach—to Kings Beach Center LLC, the same developer pursuing the adjacent Kings Beach Center site. This strategic acquisition was designed to align with the County’s broader redevelopment goals and ensure coordinated planning between the two properties.
📋 Development Vision (per County summary):
- Workforce Housing: Up to 45 units, intended to support local residents and alleviate housing pressure in the area.
- Commercial Space: Approximately 10,000 sq. ft. of retail or service-oriented uses at street level.
- Office Use: Optional integration of professional or neighborhood-serving offices.
This property’s inclusion strengthened the County’s ability to foster mixed-use development that reflects local priorities around housing, walkability, and community-serving businesses.

🔄 March 11, 2019 – Linking the Projects Together
On March 11, 2019, the Placer County Successor Agency approved a two-year Purchase and Sale Agreement for the Eastern Gateway Property—contingent on the buyer also acquiring the Kings Beach Center site. This strategic move tied both projects into a unified redevelopment vision focused on housing, hospitality, and local-serving commercial uses
📍 The Eastern Gateway site spans 1.3 acres across 10 parcels and was sold to Kings Beach Center LLC for $1.1 million.
📋 2019 Vision for the Eastern Gateway Project (per County documents):
- 🏘️ Workforce Housing: Up to 45 residential units, providing housing for approximately 90 residents
- 🛒 Retail & Commercial Frontage: ~10,000 square feet along North Lake Boulevard
- 🏢 Office & Mixed-Use Space: Integration of neighborhood-serving professional services
- 🔗 Contingent Structure: The sale included a 90-day due diligence period and a 365-day project approvals window, with optional extensions, to align timelines with the Kings Beach Center agreement.
⏳ In the Balance: Negotiations, Delays, and Incentives (2020–2023)
During this period, the 39° North redevelopment effort faced mounting delays due to financial, planning, and administrative hurdles. While official narratives emphasized entitlement complexities, additional factors came into play—such as investor concerns, developer struggles, and shifting County priorities.
📉 Key Issues:
- Reports indicated financial distress by original developer Craig Clark, including missed payments to Placer County and contracted consultants.
- These issues contributed to the loss of key project partners, including the local architect, planning consultants, and the previously proposed hotel operator.
Despite these setbacks, the County sought to keep the agreements active through a series of formal extensions.
🗓️ Extension Milestones:
- May 14, 2020 – County approved the Second Amendment to the Kings Beach Center agreement, extending the Project Approvals deadline to November 15, 2020.
- October 30, 2020 – The County provided an informal extension to March 15, 2021, offering more time for progress.
- March 9, 2021 – County adopted:
- The Third Amendment to the Kings Beach Center agreement, extending the Project Approvals Contingency Period to March 31, 2023, with two six-month extension options.
- The First Amendment to the Eastern Gateway agreement to maintain alignment across both project sites.
These amendments reflect ongoing attempts to salvage the project during a period of instability.

💰 April 2022 – Kingsbarn’s Incentive Application
Kingsbarn Realty Capital submitted a preliminary application to Placer County’s North Lake Tahoe Economic Development Incentive Program (NTEDIP). At the time, Kingsbarn had not yet been formally named as the project’s lead developer or finalized a site transfer.
📋 Key Provisions Requested:
- 153 Tourist Accommodation Units (TAUs) to support a proposed 217-unit development, including 38 condominiums.
- 80% Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Rebate on new revenues from the hotel and condos, with remaining revenue used for County general funds and TAU loan repayment.
📉 TAU Sourcing Strategy:

- Kingsbarn proposed to convert some Commercial Floor Area (CFA) to cover a portion of the TAU need.
- A small TAU deficit remained as of the initial filing.
🔍 Context:
This early incentive request shaped expectations for public investment before Kingsbarn was officially introduced to the community or assumed formal development control.

🔄 October 20, 2022 – Developer Rights Transferred to Kingsbarn
Without a public announcement, development rights for the Kings Beach Center project were transferred from Kings Beach Center LLC (Craig Clark) to KB Kings Beach LLC, an entity affiliated with Kingsbarn Realty Capital. This marked Kingsbarn’s formal entrance as the project’s lead developer.
📆 Key Dates:
- October 20, 2022: County was notified of the transfer.
- December 5, 2023: Public was officially informed through Board of Supervisors’ approval of the Fourth Amendment—over a year later.
📋 Implications:
The year-long gap between County awareness and public disclosure raised concerns about transparency, especially given the project’s use of public land and pursuit of public subsidies.
This transfer represented the fourth development entity associated with the project.

📍 December 12, 2023 – County Transfers Salmon Avenue Parking Lot to Developer
On December 12, 2023, Placer County transferred ownership of the Salmon Avenue parking lot—next to the Kings Beach Post Office—to KB Kings Beach LLC (Kingsbarn). This lot had long been used by seniors, residents, and Post Office patrons for overflow parking and was not originally included in the 2018 Kings Beach Center sale.
📋 Key Terms of the Transfer:
- No-Cost Conveyance: The County transferred the parcel without financial compensation.
- Replacement Parking: Kingsbarn agreed to provide 22 public spaces in a future underground garage beneath the planned hotel.
- Salmon Avenue Enhancements: The project includes new angled parking along the street and expanded sidewalks.
- Right-of-Way Dedication: Kingsbarn must grant 8,276 square feet of right-of-way to the County for public use.
- Reversion Clause: If the garage isn’t built by January 30, 2030, the parcel will revert to County ownership—again, at no cost.
⚠️ Community Concerns:
- Timing and accessibility of the promised garage are unclear.
- It is not confirmed whether the replacement parking will be free or fee-based.
- The agreement lacks details about interim access for those who rely on the lot today.

🏗️ Policy Updates Advance Ahead of Environmental Review (2024–2025)
From early 2024 through mid-2025, the 39° North Project continued to evolve amid growing public scrutiny. Despite being years into planning, the CEQA process has yet to formally begin—even as significant policy changes advanced to support the project.
❗ January 2024 – TAU Rebate Proposal Rejected
In January 2024, Placer County held a public hearing to consider a subsidy proposal under the North Tahoe Economic Development Incentive Program (NTEDIP) for KB Kings Beach LLC (Kingsbarn), the developer of the 39° North project.
📋 Proposal Details (per County Presentation on Jan 23, 2024):
- $2.14 million loan to transfer 146 Tourist Accommodation Units (TAUs) from the County’s TAU bank.
- TOT Rebate: 80% of newly generated Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenues rebated to Kingsbarn.
- Remaining 20% of TOT would be split between the County General Fund and TAU loan repayment.
- The development was to include 217 lodging units, of which 38 condo-units would be deed-restricted and managed within a hotel rental pool.
🏨 Scope of 39N Proposal at the Time:
- 179 hotel rooms, 38 condo-townhomes
- Public/guest parking, ground-level retail, rooftop amenities, and hotel services
📣 Public Comment (Highlights):
- Resident 1: “Why are we subsidizing luxury condos on public land while local families are priced out of housing?”
- Resident 2: “TAUs are a scarce public asset. They should go to projects that help solve our housing crisis—not to vacation suites.”
- Resident 3: “You’re giving away future tax revenue to a developer who hasn’t even completed CEQA. That’s backwards.”
- Resident 4: “There’s no guarantee this hotel will even be built. Why are we putting public money on the line now?”
- Resident 5: “This isn’t smart growth. It’s speculative development using public tools for private gain.”
🗣️ Supervisor and County Staff Remarks (Highlights):
- Supervisor: “This project hasn’t gone through CEQA yet. How do we justify this level of financial commitment before we understand the environmental impacts?”
- Supervisor: “We’re talking about redirecting tens of millions in future tax revenue. That requires clear public benefit, and I’m not seeing it here.”
- County Staff: “We did approve an incentive package back in 2022—$4.75 million. This is a new request, much larger, and it needs to stand on its own merits.”
- Supervisor: “The community has been very clear about concerns. If we ignore that, we erode trust.”
⚠️ Outcome:
- The Board of Supervisors did not approve the agreement, citing public concern over the scale of the subsidies, local benefit, and opportunity costs.
- However, an earlier $4.75 million TOT incentive included in Kingsbarn’s 2022 draft application remained noted in records, though not publicly confirmed as active or rescinded.
