Lake Tahoe Nevada
The General Improvement District
Cave Rock Estates
In Nevada, it is common practice that the maintenance of public facilities (roads, sewers, etc) within private developments be the responsibility of the property owners within the development. Under the authority of Nevada Revised Statutes (N.R.S.) 318, a county may establish a General Improvement District (GID) for this purpose. There are about fifteen different GID's in Douglas County.
On October 6, 1975, the Board of Supervisors of Douglas County adopted Ordinance No. CR-2, creating the Cave Rock Estates General Improvement District (CREGID). The District is charged with the responsibility to improve and maintain the roads, curbs gutter, sidewalks, storm drains, water system, and street lighting within the Cave Rock Estates development.
The District is governed by an elected five member board, which meets as needed (at least twice a year) to conduct the business of the District.
