Housing to be focus of SLT grassroots group

Progress for Tahoe has decided its initial focus is going to be housing.

The grassroots group that formed in South Lake Tahoe earlier this year will next meet June 14 at 5:30pm at the American Legion. The meeting is open to anyone.

At the May meeting five areas of interest were talked about: housing, environment-recreation, mental health, economy, and redevelopment. Housing is being tackled first because it ties into the other subjects.

“Progress for Tahoe seeks to define Tahoe by solutions and answers instead of complaints and negativity, and always with respect for the incredible change that has already occurred here, and the tireless voices that have fought for and continue to fight for change,” according to a press release.
