Members needed for Measure R committees

With the passage of Measure R – the rewriting of the South Shore’s Measure S recreation legislation – comes the need to create committees that will recommend to the board how the money for ball fields and bike trails should be spent.

Seven people will be on each of the two advisory committees. All meetings will be open to the public and subject to California’s open meeting law.

The deadline to apply is Jan. 13 at 5pm.

Applications are available at:

• South Lake Tahoe City Clerk’s office, 1901 Airport Road, (530) 542.6004 or email eapalazzo@cityofslt.us

• John Upton at (530) 541.0525 or e mail rkupton@aol.com

• El Dorado County Supervisor Norma Santiago’s office at (530) 621.6577, or bosfive@edcgov.us.

Members are expected to be chosen at the Jan. 20 JPA board meeting. It starts at 9am at Lake Tahoe Airport. Applicants are encouraged to attend the meeting. If unable to attend, applicants should advise Upton.
