The North Tahoe Public Utility District is seeking applications from interested community members for up to two alternate positions to serve on the District’s Recreation and Parks Commission.

The North Tahoe Public Utility District Board of Directors invites District residents and business owners who are interested in enhancing and promoting recreation and parks in North Lake Tahoe to volunteer and apply for these open positions. Applications are due on or before Dec. 1.

Alternate positions serve as non-voting members who participate in Commission activities and events and provide input and fill in during a fellow Commissioner’s absence at Commission meetings. Serving as an alternate allows interested members of the pubic to learn the operations of the District and is often the gateway to a full seat on the Commission.
