A federal court has ruled in favor of the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, affirming an update to the Lake Tahoe Regional Plan that was adopted in December 2012.
In February 2013, the Sierra Club and Friends of the West Shore filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Sacramento to stop the Regional Plan from taking effect in its entirety.
U.S. District Court Judge John Mendez on Monday said the agency could keep the document in place.
