Future of Kings Beach center to be studied

North Tahoe Public Utility District’s board of directors is trying to figure out how to keep the North Tahoe Event Center in Kings Beach solvent since the deal with Laulima fell through last month.

A task group consisting of members of the Recreation and Park Commission, district residents and up to two directors will be formed to provide suggestions for the continued operation of the center. The process to apply to participate in this group will be announced in coming weeks.  

The task group will review current uses, operational costs, and revenue funding, as well as discuss possible future uses and funding sources.

The goal is for the task group to work no more than one year to reach consensus and a recommendation on providing financial solvency to the NTEC and the Recreation and Park Department. 

In the meantime, the North Tahoe Event Center is operating as usual and accepting bookings.
