Former Motel 6 site public input, trail improvement funds, Tahoe XC trailhead relocation grant: California Tahoe Conservancy board meeting updates
The California Tahoe Conservancy held a board meeting on Thursday, Sept. 18, at Lake Tahoe Community College, but not before a tour around two project sites. … The board’s first stop at the Upper Truckee River Restoration demonstrated prior efforts, which removed fill from wetlands, constructed a storm water basin to improve water quality, and built new trails to the river at the Elks Club site. … Restoring the Upper Truckee River Watershed is a significant focus for the conservancy due to its significance as the largest and most environmentally consequential watershed draining to Lake Tahoe.
