Best in Basin nominations being sought

Tahoe Regional Planning Agency will be accepting project nominations for its annual Best in Basin awards through March 31.

TRPA created the awards program as a way to recognize projects that demonstrate exceptional planning and design and compatibility with Lake Tahoe’s environment and communities.

The program has five award categories for projects completed in 2017: Building and general construction projects; water quality restoration and erosion control projects; defensible space and forest health projects; public and environmental improvement program projects; and sustainability actions and projects. Projects must have been completed in 2017 to be eligible for an award.

Lake Tahoe residents interested in volunteering to judge projects should contact Tom Lotshaw at tlotshaw@trpa.org.
