Voices for Housing Episode 3: Alison Part 1

April 14, 2026

In this episode of Voices for Housing, we introduce you to Alison. Her work is critical to the environmental protection of Lake Tahoe. Alison explains how difficult it is to hire and retain quality workers simply because they cannot find affordable housing. This impacts not just the workers themselves, but the businesses who want to hire them. Building a thriving local economy is tied directly to having safe, dignified, affordable housing for local workers. This is Part 1 of Alison’s story.

Voices for Housing Episode 2: Xander

March 18, 2026

This week we introduce you to Xander Guldman, a professional skier raised in Truckee who has come back after college to build his life here. For Xander, Tahoe/Truckee isn’t just where he skis. The mountains he grew up on, the community he’s built his life around, and the access to the outdoors make everything else in his life possible. But it all depends on the availability of affordable housing. Listen to Xander’s take on what makes this place so special and also so hard to hold onto.

We are thrilled to launch Voices for Housing, a new campaign dedicated to sharing Tahoe Truckee housing stories from our community. Over the next several months, we will introduce you to local residents from diverse personal and professional backgrounds who all have a unique housing story to share.

We start with Mary, a local artist and retiree who explains her deep connection to Kings Beach. Her story is a perfect example of why housing for all matters for the creative heart of our community.
