Amador County – The Amador Regional Planning Committee selected a new chair last month, and with it will move its meetings to Jackson, starting with its April 28th meeting. Jackson City Councilman Keith Sweet was elected chairman of the committee March 24th, and on Wednesday he announced that “the committee’s Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) requires the chair to provide support staff – thus the change.” Sweet said the April 28th meeting, and all future meetings for 2010, will be at the Jackson Civic Center at 33 Broadway. Sweet, in an e-mail Wednesday to members and interested people, said he will attempt to have an agenda and supporting documents to the committee and interested people a week prior to each meeting. Agendas will be sent by Jackson City Clerk Gisele Cangelosi, via e-mail. Sweet requested that committee members send him the names of their alternates for 2010. He also requested that they send him any topics the members or their councils or groups may want the committee to pursue. Sweet said: “I would like to include as many subjects as possible in this next agenda so that the committee can review and agendize them for the coming year.” Any interested people receiving his e-mail were also invited to submit topics, as he assumed they have an interest in the committee’s activities. He said topics already submitted were “General Plan comparisons; revenue and/or personnel sharing,” and review of the Jackson wastewater study. In early March, Amador Regional Planning Committee members selected a new meeting day, and will meet 7 p.m. every 4th Wednesday of the month. Future agenda items discussed at the March 24th meeting included recirculation of the updated committee MOU and General Plan update presentations. Also discussed was drafting “a program document supporting the sharing of revenues from major new and relocated commercial developments,” as well as “establishing a system to share personnel and material resources between jurisdictions.” Amador Regional Planning Committee members are Sweet, Sutter Creek Mayor Pro Tempore Tim Murphy, Amador County Supervisors Ted Novelli (District 3) and Chairman Brian Oneto (District 5); Ione City Councilwoman Andrea Bonham; and Plymouth Mayor Pat Fordyce.
