Amador County – The Upcountry Community Council will meet as scheduled Monday after members decided that a conflicting Amador Fire Safe Council Bump & Run Drill should not change the meeting time.

UCC Chair Lynn Morgan said the meeting will go on as scheduled, 6-8 p.m. Monday, Sept. 12, saying members were supporting keeping the date.

The UCC agenda includes a County Update from District 3 Supervisor Ted Novelli. The Council is also scheduled to have a discussion of elements for a “Buckhorn Town Center,” as identified in the Amador County draft General Plan. Debbie Dunn will speak on the status of the community plan for a Buckhorn Town Center.

The agenda includes an update by Gary Reinoehl on Upcountry transportation issues; and District 3 Director Don Cooper will give a report on the Amador Water Agency happenings.

Rich Farrington will give a report from the Fire Protection Committee, and Rebecca Brown is scheduled to report on the Amador County Regional Planning Committee. Dunn will also give an update from the board of the Amador County Recreation Agency.

The UCC agenda also includes nomination of UCC officers for the next two-year term ending December 2013. The agenda allows for speaker presentations and questions and answers.

Morgan said all items on the agenda may result in a consensus opinion from the Upcountry Community Council. The UCC has no formal members, except for a chair and vice chair, and consensus voting is done by anyone attending.
