Overview
Mission
Tahoe Cedar Property Owners' Association (TCPOA) is located on the west shore of Lake Tahoe. The primary purpose is to better the community, foster community spirit, and to speak as one voice for the property owners of this tract. TCPOA acts as a point of contact with the various organizations that provide services to the community, such as fire and police departments, Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, El Dorado County and the public utilities district. TCPOA also organizes various community events during the year. It manages the community park with it's playground and theater. TCPOA communicates to its approximately 750 residents of Tahoma through its website, newsletter and email.
What it reported doing in 2025
Manages the buoy field leased from the State of California and Tahoe Regional Planning Agency. TCPOA rents the buoys to its members for funds equivalent to payment to agencies; maintenance of buoy field, pier and waterfront; and liability insurance.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
