CTC board happy with leader’s improvements

Patrick Wright

While there was no action taken in closed session Thursday by the California Tahoe Conservancy board, it was a better experience for Patrick Wright compared to June.

Wright, the executive director of the state agency based in South Lake Tahoe, this summer was told by his board he better get his act together. Apparently he has done so.

Improved communication by Wright with the board, staff and stakeholders was acknowledged Dec. 7.

While his salary was to be discussed in open session, that didn’t happen. The item was pulled because there is suddenly a question as to who should be giving him a raise — state officials or the CTC board. That issue has not been resolved.
