This year, the class has come up with some very interesting topics. The class participants now need your input to further their Action Plans. Below are overviews and links to the surveys. Please take all that interest you.
We are looking to create a community ski hill that’s all about making winter sports accessible and affordable for local families, especially those who may not have the means to go to more prominent resorts. This will be a place where kids and families can learn to ski or snowboard in a safe, welcoming environment without the high price tag. We’ll have beginner-friendly slopes, ski lessons, and rentals available at low rates. Our goal is to build a space that fosters community, helps kids build confidence, and creates lasting memories for families to enjoy together in the outdoors.

Weathering Tahoe Truckee Together - Community Survey
​
This survey is a project of the North Lake Tahoe-Truckee Leadership Program.
We are developing Weathering Tahoe Truckee Together, a community-driven project to help Truckee and North Lake Tahoe residents prepare their homes for winter. Many in our region face challenges in making their homes safe and comfortable during severe weather, putting their health and wellbeing at risk. This project focuses on improving access to winterization resources, especially for those most vulnerable to extreme conditions.
By the winter of 2025, we aim to create a local program that connects residents with existing low-cost or free winterization solutions through a website or other convenient communication medium. Partnering with community groups and local, state, and federal agencies, we want to make it easier for people to find, apply for, and receive assistance. Our goal is to provide ongoing support that helps those most at-risk to reach trusted resources and reduce energy usage and expenses.
We need your input to build a program that truly meets the needs of the community. This survey will help us understand the biggest challenges residents face and what resources would be most useful. Your feedback will directly shape how we design and deliver support, ensuring the program is effective and accessible.

Incentives for Locals - Small Business owners should take this survey
​
The high cost of living in North Lake Tahoe is a major barrier for both employers and employees, impacting hiring, retention, and economic stability.
Incentives for Locals is a nonprofit initiative dedicated to making North Lake Tahoe and Truckee more affordable for local workers, ensuring a stable workforce and a thriving local economy. By fostering partnerships between businesses and employees, the program aims to address financial barriers such as high living expenses (housing, food, transportation, and essential services) that contribute to workforce shortages and employee turnover.
A core component of the initiative is a *membership-based website that connects verified local workers with exclusive discounts, grants, and incentives provided by participating businesses. This system supports both employees—by easing cost-of-living challenges—and businesses—by improving worker retention and operational stability.
