This week on Voices of Taos, reporter Emery Veilleux talks with Jessie Hook, Destination Stewardship Plan Manager.
Emery and Jessie talk about what the Destination Stewardship Plan is and how it can help tourism in Taos be sustainable and equitable. Businesses in Taos rely heavily on tourism, but that needs to be balanced with the needs and desires of locals.
Hook and Veilleux discuss the Destination Stewardship Network, a cross-sector coalition that will lead the implementation of the Plan. They also talk about history of Taos as a destination, what the future of tourism could look like, and how important it is to work with the community to respond to changing trends in tourism.
