Conversation to focus on what the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill means for Lake Tahoe
The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency and the League to Save Lake Tahoe will host a virtual chat with U.S. Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) to discuss how the Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act will benefit the Lake Tahoe Basin. The bill allocates resources to respond to the growing threat of wildfires and includes a historic investment to combat the spread of aquatic invasive species. They will discuss the latest developments regarding the reauthorization of the Lake Tahoe Restoration Act, which is vital to the continued success of the region.
Earlier this year, Senator Padilla hosted the 25th Annual Lake Tahoe Summit with support from the Tahoe Fund, Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, and Team Tahoe Partners. The annual summit brings together elected officials, policy makers, federal agencies, the private sector, and local community leaders to collaboratively address environmental problems facing the Tahoe basin.

The plan will create a shared vision for a world-class trail network in Tahoe that spans land managed by numerous agencies and links Tahoe’s dirt trail and urban trail systems.
Public comments and questions will be available through the chat function during the webinar. For more information about the Tahoe Regional Trails Plan, visit the project website at tahoetrailsplan.org.
