The Sustainability Measures project was initiated in 2006 by a broad consortium of community interests including education, health care, public safety, business, social services and government. The primary sponsors were Tahoechamber.org and the North Lake Tahoe Chamber. Funding was provided by the Army Corp of Engineers.

The objective of the project was to design and implement a set of measures of sustainability that could be monitored and analyzed to help inform public policy and community awareness as we strive to integrate healthy communities and environment with a vibrant economy. The report was released in March of 2010 and can be seen along with all appendixes by clicking here. This project is overseen by a Steering Committee who will now begin the process of finding ongoing financial support and determine how often the data will be collected and analyzed.

PROSPERITY PLAN

In June of 2007 your Chamber convened a group of economic development specialists to begin the process of developing a Prosperity Plan for the Lake Tahoe Basin. In Spring of 2008 the group began to pursue an EDA Grant to help complete the project that would provide a road map for local organizations and jurisdictions in the form of a strategy with recommendations for business retention, expansion and attraction as well as workforce development. 
As of August 2009 this grant had been received, a Steering Committee representing each jurisdiction has been formed and a contractor hired to complete the project.
