Amador County – The Amador County Planning Commission meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday with several items to consider, including a request by Dick Cooper for a permit for a Barbera Festival. Cooper seeks a user “permit to allow for a one-day, annual outdoor event, including wine tasting, food, vendors, live music and displays for approximately 1,800 attendees the first year with the possibility of growing to 2,500 attendees in future years, at Cooper Vineyards.”

Brian Miller is the organizer of the District 5 Barbera Festival, which would be held on the west side of Shenandoah School Road, about a mile south of the intersection of Shenandoah Road, in the Shenandoah Valley.

The Commission also will consider an application by the Mace Family Trust to divide a 160 acres into two parcels of 40 acres each, and one parcel of 80 acres. The land is in District 2, “west of Carbondale Road, extending north to Lambert Road, approximately ¼ mile west of the most northerly Carbondale Road and Lambert Road junction.”
