All 3 applications will be considered in planning commission public hearings. Each seeks a “use permit to allow a temporary caretaker trailer” for “a maximum time frame of 2 years,” and all 3 seek categorical exemptions on their environmental documentation. Amador County Recreation Agency’s application seeks a permit for a trailer to be located near the baseball fields in order “to provide security due to vandalism and other criminal activity at the park.” The park, in Supervisor District 3, is located on both sides of Highway 88, and is accessed by Carson Drive and Woodfern Drive in Pioneer. Commissioners will also hold a hearing on a permit application to place a trailer for up to 2 years “at Silver Lake to facilitate patrol of El Dorado Irrigation District facilities,” such as “the day use and boat launch areas,” and to “perform watercraft inspection for invasive mussel species.” Applicant is the El Dorado Irrigation District, and the location would be at the former “Sandy Cove Picnic Area,” on the north shore of Silver Lake, also in District 3. SGC Materials also seeks a 2-year trailer permit for its Irish Hill Quarry, Equipment and Plant Structure, on the east side of Irish Hill Road, about a mile north of its junction with Highway 104, in Supervisor District 2. The trailer would a caretaker to stay on the property for “24-7 onsite security services.” The planning commission, which meets 7 p.m. Tuesday (June 8th), also is scheduled to hold a public hearing for the application of a church facility on “Hurricane Hill” on Highway 88, for up to 125 people. Calvary Ione Fellowship Church is applying for a permit to operate a facility there for mid-week and weekend events; along with occasional weddings (of up to 12 in number per year). It would also hold funerals there and needed, and locate a church business office there, at 10501 Highway 88, in Supervisor District 2. The application also seeks a categorical exemption for its environmental documentation. Story by Jim Reece This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
