City Council addresses craft shows and outdoor displays

The South Lake Tahoe City Council narrowly approved a new temporary craft show ordinance and increased fee schedule during their meeting on Tuesday.
"Seems like overkill," said Councilwoman JoAnn Conner in her vote against the ordinance. "Its a tremendous amount of work for anyone who wants to come in and do an event and its a tremendous amount of work for staff."
Conner was speaking of the new ordinance which changes the rules for the eight temporary craft shows held annually in the city each year. She and Tom Davis were the two dissenting votes.

The South Lake Tahoe City Council once again addressed temporary craft shows on Tuesday, discussing many issues from displays, appearance, juries, and subjective verbiage including "quality," "nice" and "tidy," all of which were all part of the draft city ordinance they were reviewing.
Dealing with craft shows is nothing new for the council, having voted in 2013 to limit the number of shows in city limits to four per site with a maximum of eight per summer season.

Craft shows allowed in South Lake Tahoe have long been an issue, whether it was the number of them or the quality of goods offered. In September of 2013, the codes concerning craft shows were revised to only allow 10 per year in 2014 and eight per year starting in 2015. The maximum number of shows per location was changed to limit just four.

After lengthy debate during Tuesday's South Lake Tahoe City Council meeting, a 3-2 vote changed the direction of the second phase of the plastic bag ban.
In January, 2014, a ban on single use bags was implemented for all grocery stores and food vendors in the city limits. That portion of the ban has not changed. What has changed is the second phase which was going to expand the ban to retail stores starting on October 15, 2014.

At Lake Tahoe where many have more than one job to make ends meet, two women have tied their local businesses and passion for creativity together to build one dynamic company — Forest Furniture Tahoe.
The art of creativity and a belief and respect in what each brings to the table brought Marianne Rosenfeld and Julianne Kohn together six years ago.
These two are a duo of hard work and tenacity, where one complements the other.
