Join Assistant Editor Geoffrey Plant for a special series on the proposed Tarleton Ranch Eco-Village (TREV) development. This week's guests are master planner John Halley and real estate developer Mark Yaravitz. John and Mark share their hopes for the TREV community and some facts about the project they hope will help people understand the scope of the multi-decade development. Some things they hope to bring to the north side of Taos are affordable housing, sustainable agriculture, a pharmacy, a retirement community, healthcare, and a hotel. They argue that by creating infrastructure for the village (including a recycled water treatment facility) they will be offering Taos a place for sustainable growth.

Master planner John Halley and real estate developer Mark Yaravitz on why the Tarelton Ranch Eco-Village is a sustainable solution to Taos' current needs and future growth.

Join Assistant Editor Geoffrey Plant for a special series on the proposed Tarleton Ranch Eco-Village (TREV) development. This week's guest is Kent Kobakoff, a resident of Upper Las Colonias who is opposed to the development. Kent and a group of concerned neighbors have challenged the development because they believe it’s incompatible with the neighborhood and Taos county. “We’ve been criticized and our position has been trivialized by people calling us NIMBYs (Not In My Backyard),” Kent says in the interview. For Kent and his neighbors, its much more than concerns about their views being blocked. 

Next week developer John Halley and land owner Mike Tarleton will talk about their hopes for TREV and why they believe the Eco-Village is an opportunity for Taos.
