We have added a new section - Development News - to highlight current news and events. Please visit this new section for the latest information. Support SLPOA by displaying a Save Donner Summit bumper sticker.

Serene Lakes and Donner Summit face a tremendous challenge - a major development project of approximately 1,000 housing units, a hotel and shopping venues. For Serene Lakes this development will double the number of residential units and poses critical questions regarding the end result in the community we know and love. It is up to all of us to understand the nature of the project and the potential impacts - water, traffic, noise and light pollution and much more - on Serene Lakes, Soda Springs and the Summit. We must be prepared to rationally, calmly and accurately represent our communities to the developers and all of the agencies that must approve the project.

To that end this section of the SLPOA web site offers the most comprehensive collection of documents pertaining to development on Donner Summit available. The intent is to provide you with access to information you need to understand and evaluate the issues surrounding development of Donner Summit. The materials have been collected from DSAA, SLPOA, Foster-Syme, Placer County and other organizations.

There is a significant amount of information and it can be a daunting task to wade through all of it. In an effort to help you we have provided three navigational tools. The first is a Chronology that lists events with links to the pertinent documents. This will assist in understanding how positions have evolved.

The second is the Donner Summit/Serene Lakes Development Countdown. That page outlines the CEQA process and provides step-by-step descriptions of it. The Countdown has links to pertinent documents. Those links will be updated as more information becomes available.

The third navigational aid is the menu on the left. In this view documents are grouped by originating organization (SLPOA, Foster-Syme, etc.) and by category (maps, links). Information is available on:

Most of the documents presented here are in Adobe Portable Document Format files and will require the Adobe Reader to open. If you do not have the Adobe Reader use this link to download a free copy: Adobe Reader.
