Amador County – The Upcountry Community Council in January will host Amador County Planning Director, who will give a presentation on the county’s short designation of a “town center,” and how it may be applied to Buckhorn.

Lynn Morgan, Chairwoman of the UCC said the “primary focus of this meeting will be to get our questions answered about the future Buckhorn Town Center, which will be designed within the amended County General Plan.”

She said Susan Grijalva, director of the Amador County Planning Department will join the Council “to help answer our questions, so I expect our meeting will be thorough.”

The Council will be revisiting a previous topic in the Buckhorn Town Center discussion. Grijalva is scheduled for a 45-minute presentation, which includes time for questions and answers, as allowed with all agenda scheduling.

The agenda includes a county update from District 3 Supervisor Ted Novelli.

The agenda noted that “all items on the agenda “may result in a consensus opinion from Upcountry Community Council,” which has no elected members, other than the chair and vice chair. The meetings are open to anyone who cares to attend.

The meeting is set for 6-8 p.m. Monday, Jan. 9, at the Veterans Memorial Hall on Buckhorn Ridge Road in Pioneer.
