Amador County – Two Jackson civic and business groups plan meetings in the coming week, including the Jackson Revitalization Committee’s monthly meeting Thursday, and the Jackson Business and Community Association’s fall mixer Monday, Oct. 17.

The Jackson Revitalization Committee meets 6 p.m. Thursday in the Jackson City Council Chambers, at 33 Broadway. Discussion items include committee membership term renewals, a review of revitalization committee goals, and an updates to the Jackson business planner.

The Revitalization committee will also get project updates, including on the Façade Improvement Grants; Downtown historic plaques; and the Creekwalk Project, which will discuss a request from the Amador County Recreation Agency for grant preparation funding assistance.

City Manager Mike Daly announced the JRC meeting, saying another business meeting of note is the Jackson Business and Community Association’s Fall Mixer, coming up on Monday, Oct. 17, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at Jose’s Mexican Restaurant, owned by the Amador County Chamber of Commerce Business Person of the Year, Martha Perez.

The 2011 Fall Mixer will give attendees drinks and refreshments, and information on what the Jackson Business and Community Association is doing, what it has done, and what it has planned for 2012.

Organizers Pattie and Ron Busch of the Celtic Knot sent announcements, encouraging people to bring friends, and saying to “remember this is more than a business association. It is a community association, open to anyone who cares about Jackson.”
