South Lake hotels fined

Two South Lake Tahoe motels were targeted in last month’s sting by the state Division of Labor Standards Enforcements.
The Sky Lake Lodge was fined $2,000 and Bears’ Den Inn received a $1,000 fine for workers’ compensation violations.
The state handed out 23 citations during the June 11-12 crackdown. Those citations span eight counties and total $52,250 in fines. Sixty motels were targeted.
Four other hotels in El Dorado County were part of the investigation, but did not receive fines.
