North Tahoe Public Utility District is looking to the community it serves to determine future recreation needs.

The board will be hiring a consultant to provide a needs assessment, which is part of updating the Recreation and Parks Master Plan. The assessment will also provide input to the district about what residents think of parks and North Tahoe Event Center, and the level people are willing to fund both

Also at the meeting the board agreed to release a request for proposals for the operation and management of the North Tahoe Event Center.
