Recommendations Regarding 'Economic Revitalization' for South Shore Lake Tahoe
Submitted by Editor on Tue, 11/06/2012 - 4:26pm

I feel like our group had many salient ideas that were not properly represented. Also, I have noticed that people are quick to offer ideas like “reduce unemployment”, “beautify the city”, and “improve recreation”, but they are typically unable to offer suggestions on how to make those ideas a reality.
