Tax haven

The village is known as a haven for business and wealthy individuals from California and Southern Nevada. While some move to the village, others register shell corporations and fictitious primary residences there to avoid paying California taxes. A Montara, California, politician faced controversy for reporting Incline as her primary residence for tax purposes while also running for office in California. Joe Francis, creator of "Girls Gone Wild", was registered as a resident in Incline but living in Los Angeles, California during the time he was found guilty of tax fraud and bribery. Michael DeDomenico, heir of the Rice-A-Roni and Ghirardelli fortune, was charged with evading $1.5 million in taxes to California by falsely claiming residency in Nevada. He owned homes in Verdi and Incline.

History

Established in 1882 with a post office opening February 7, 1884.

Sierra Nevada Wood and Lumber Company

The Sierra Nevada Wood and Lumber Company (SNW&L) was a logging company that operated on the northeast side of Lake Tahoe at what is today known as Incline Village, which was named after the SNW&L incline railway that served the area. Timber was required for the mines during the mining boom in the late 1800s of the nearby Comstock Lode in Virginia City. The timber around Lake Tahoe was placed on the incline railway where it was taken up 1,400 feet (430 m) and then dropped by a gravity flume down the western side of mountain to a 3000 ft tunnel to Carson City. The company operated a number of other railroad lines that were 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge and standard gauge.
