Amador County - Assessors from throughout the state gathered in Sutter Creek last week for the annual Northern California Assessors Association conference. The event was hosted by Jim Rooney, Amador County Assessor and recently elected executive secretary of the association. Between Monday and Wednesday, attendees took part in training sessions and discussions at various locations throughout the picturesque gold rush town. Attendees included assessors and staff members from various counties, along with some spouses and family members. Discussions centered on property transfers, individual county concerns, assessment appeals and historic properties. But the event was not all business. Early arrivals on Monday were treated to a reception at the Sutter Creek Inn and a movie screening at the Sutter Creek Theatre. The Kennedy Mine hosted a barbeque on Tuesday morning before training began, with another barbeque taking place that night at the Sutter Creek Gold Mine. Rooney called the event a “huge success” in a fresh environment. He said Pam Weatherly of the Sutter Creek Visitor’s Center played a key role in helping to plan the event. Rooney worked hard to get the conference to Sutter Creek this year, and his efforts paid off when his peers voted to approve his request last October. Rooney is in line to become the Association’s president in 2013, more than 100 years after the last Amador County Assessor was President of the statewide association.” Honorable Clarence Jarvis was President in 1912, a span of over 101 years.
