Amador County - The Jackson Planning Commission arrived last Monday ready to review draft architectural regulations, but tabled the item until committee members submit information that should have previously been incorporated into the document. The draft regulations were recommended by the nine-member Architectural Regulations Committee, established by the City Council on May 11, 2009. The committee was to consider whether design regulations should apply citywide, whether guidelines should be voluntary or mandatory, and who should be responsible for project reviews. According to City Planner Susan Peters, the proposed regulations “are essentially comprised of general standards which apply citywide, more stringent standards that apply to residential and commercial development in the historic areas of the City, and standards for new subdivisions.” An outline was recommended to the council last August and, said Peters, “the purpose of Monday’s meeting was to hold a workshop to begin review” of the regulations. But, she said, “There are, unfortunately, a few missing portions that staff has not had time to complete prior to this Planning Commission meeting.” City Clerk Gisele Cangelosi said “certain important documents were missing.” She said there is a meeting planned for July 8 in which she, Susan Peters and Commission Vice-Chair Kathryn Devlin will sit down to review and assemble a completed document. She said the guidelines will then be resubmitted to the council for review on July 19. Story by Alex Lane This email address is being protected from spambots.
