Who should shape the future of the former Incline Elementary property?

This Wednesday, the Tahoe Transportation District will hear a proposal for the Incline Sports Arena. While no vote is scheduled, the meeting marks an important moment in the ongoing conversation about one of Incline Village's last significant publicly owned properties.

The discussion is no longer just about a single proposal. It's about how this land can best serve our community for generations to come, whether through workforce housing, recreation, education, or another vision entirely.

We encourage everyone to take a few minutes to learn more about the issue and, if possible, attend the meeting or participate via Zoom. Community involvement today can help shape the decisions of tomorrow.
