2 Lakes 2 Main Streets

4/17/2013

Our county is made up of two main areas, the valley and the lake.  And while ts critical to understand that our county is made up of these two distinct areas, they are similar in how they are laid out.  We actually have two lakes, while Tahoe gets the glory, some miss of the best lakes in Nevada down at Topaz.  It's a great lake for boating, fishing, wake boarding and swimming.  (Yes, you can swim in Topaz and not totally freeze!)

In addition to the two lakes, both areas have a major highway through the main area of the township and is cumbersome to pedestrian traffic and establishing a business friendly environment. To answer these driving concerns our citizens rose to the challenge and have conducted separate studies that build upon a community vision.

There is a Tahoe South Shore Vision Plan that has been in process and is still going forward, providing a vehicle to share community concerns and help for the future.  Revitalizing the lake area is a key to growth and we have a state highway as the main street through town.

There is also a new Valley Vision built on the same premise and having a state highway as the main street. This group is  going strong with several nights of community input in April.  We look forward to both of these plans as they take shape and provide more insight to future of our county.
