The first Tuesday of November is election day, and today was no different though it went almost unnoticed in South Lake Tahoe. The only item on the ballot for El Dorado County voters at the lake was for the election of four board members of the Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District, two for two year terms, and two for four year terms. Only those living within the boundary lines of the district were eligible to both run for office, and to vote.

There are eight people vying for the four open positions on the Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District (TPRID) Board of Directors, and the public will be able to watch them in action during a candidate's forum on Thursday.

TPRID, formed in 1965, governs Lake Baron and the surrounding park in the Tahoe Paradise neighborhood of Meyers.

Things are moving forward quickly for the Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District. The former maintenance person who lived at the park is gone, there are now special events planned, and a new employee is about to be hired.

There is a special meeting of the district's board of directors on Thursday night that will help form this summer's plans for the community park.

The meeting will be held at the park located at 1011 San Bernardino Avenue in Meyers at 6 p.m. on Thursday, July 9.

The agenda includes:

a) Events Committee Update - 50th Anniversary Party and Music in the Park

There is an open seat on the Board of Directors for the Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvment District (TPRID), and appliations are now being accepted to fill it.

The volunteer position is open due to the resignation of Lorraine Anderson whose term expires on December 7, 2015. The current Board hopes to fill the position at the next TPRID meeting on March 26.

All directors, which compose a five-member board, have a vested interest to operate the business of the District to the best of his or her ability and conscience.

Gone was the yelling between board members. Gone was the yelling from the residents in the crowd. Gone was the uncomfortable feeling I had watching a Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District (TPRID) board meeting. Gone were the bullies. Gone were the mistruths.

Present was teamwork, respect, order, transparency and a general commitment to make the park a viable one that families, residents and visitors could enjoy.

It was another packed house meeting on Thursday night for the Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District.

The last few meetings have been full of anger, dysfunction, arguing and mis-information. Many came to this board meeting hoping to have answers and a clear understanding of what the future holds for the Tahoe Paradise Park, which the board oversees.

It was clear early on that this meeting was going to be more of the same.

After witnessing the Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District (TPRID) meeting last week I starting thinking how the residents of Meyers and Tahoe Paradise could be better served.

What happened at the TPRID meeting was a sad display of a board in action. There was yelling, arguing and, what one person witnessing everything said, “don’t air your dirty laundry in a meeting like this.”
