I urge you to vote for Measure U - let’s collectively uplift the children of our community. Measure U is a bond that will provide much-needed funds for the Lake Tahoe Unified School District to repair and maintain its facilities.

Letter: Why to vote no on Measure U
Submitted by paula on Tue, 10/15/2024 - 2:48pm
Dear Editor: When Lake Tahoe Unified School District's (LTUSD) Measures C and G passed in 1999 and 2008, within three years after each passage we saw a decline in LTUSD enrollment of 541 and 304 students. All in all, the enrollment declined 1,924 students from 2000 to 2011 moving mostly to the Carson Valley/Reno area simply because it became too expensive to live.
The costs of the parcel taxes were passed on to renters and property owners.

Letter: I am with David Jinkens
Submitted by paula on Wed, 10/09/2024 - 3:41pm
I would vote for David Jinkens if I could. The choice is clear as a 52-year resident, father of two, business owner for 40 years, former STPUD director (89to93), and an involved citizen. In 2007 the world was going through a great recession, so things were beyond the reach of the city council and city manager. I don't know about Rachel C. (in an opinion piece on Wednesday) but I went through eminent domain in 1989 and I wish David Jinkens was the city manager then.
I could use all the noun modifiers in the dictionary to describe Dave, but he is the best choice for the city council.

Letter: The Real David Jinkens
Submitted by paula on Wed, 10/09/2024 - 6:00am
As a longtime resident of South Lake Tahoe, I find it very concerning that former city manager David Jinkens is running for City Council.
During this campaign, David Jinkens has continually touted his experience as a city manager. He has stated that his experience is one of the reasons the voters should elect him. However, he rarely shares any tangible accomplishments during this time. And our local media seems to have failed to ask about this same experience. Let’s take a closer look at the experience David Jinkens thinks deserves your vote.
