Rehabilitate or Replace Deficient and Deteriorated Employee Housing at Lodgepole
Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks » Rehabilitate or Replace Deficient and Deteriorated Employee Housing at Lodgepole
The National Park Service (NPS) has made a decision to finalize and implement a plan to rehabilitate or replace employee housing and related infrastructure in the Lodgepole Employee Housing District serving Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.
This project will rehabilitate or demolish and replace park housing units and related housing elements in the Lodgepole Housing District with more durable structures, upgraded utilities, and improved circulation to better meet the parks' current housing needs. The new housing will consist of a combination of single-family homes, duplexes, and multi-unit buildings using NPS prototype units adapted to meet site conditions and park needs. Each unit will meet current code, be structurally adequate to resist snow load, and employ a weathertight envelope. Energy efficiency and overall building durability will be significantly improved. The proposed housing improvements will allow for four-season occupancy, greater flexibility for housing management, reduced maintenance burden, and improved operational efficiency.
Public feedback on the proposed action was accepted via this website (https://parkplanning.nps.gov/LodgepoleHousing) between June 15 and July 17, 2025. Comments received were incorporated into the decision process as appropriate.
