Doug Sovern is away today. Voters in South Lake Tahoe have a big decision to make before they turn in their ballots, and it's not only on who they decide to be the next president. Many people go to the mountain resort town to escape their day-to-day lives, oftentimes staying in their vacation homes or book through a rental company. But South Lake Tahoe has about 7,000 vacant homes, and the contentious measure is pushing to tax these properties that are empty for half of the year to address the town's housing crisis. For a better understanding of Measure N, we have two guests for you on each side of the issue. First, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart spoke with Amelia Richmond, Co-Founder of Locals for Affordable Housing, which is the group that collected the signatures to get the issue on the ballot. Patti and Bret then spoke with Steve Teshara, Director of Government Relations for the Tahoe Chamber of Commerce, who is opposing the measure.
