slide3-jackson_revitalization_committee_will_review_strategic_plan.pngAmador County – The Jackson Revitalization Committee makes an annual review of its strategic plan today, and will also discuss the “Shop Jackson” program, as well as discretion funding of $5,000 in “Measure E” funds. The committee’s annual review will look at updates of the strategic plan, and will identify action plans for accomplishing objectives. City Manager Mike Daly said the strategic plan will be reviewed for possible updates and discussion of new efforts to work on some of the listed goals. The 2008 revitalization committee’s strategic plan included improving visual appeal, creating a coordinator and/or facilitator position, and evaluating the use of public facilities and properties. Other strategies were to establish development areas, defining “connectivity corridors,” gathering and disseminating information, and identifying unmet business and service needs. Strategic planning will be among the subcommittee reports, which could include business recruiting, finance, community identity and public relations subcommittees. The agenda also includes a review of participation and a discussion of the raffle program for the 2nd season of the “Shop Jackson” program, being led by the Jackson Rancheria. The Revitalization Committee also has its “Clean It & Green It” event Saturday, April 24th, and it also will be one of the beneficiaries of the 32nd Anniversary Mother Lode Hot Jazz Party, Saturday, April 25th in Jackson. Nine bands will play at the Elks Lodge, American Legion Hall, Mel & Fayes, Thomi’s, Denny’s and Teresa’s Place. Benefits go to Jackson Revitalization Committee, and ARC of Amador and Calaveras counties. The Jackson Revitalization Committee meets at 6 p.m. today (Thursday, April 8th) in the Jackson City Council Chambers at 33 Broadway.
