Amador County – The Sutter Creek Gold Rush Implementation Committee was to have its first meeting today, and the council tonight was to consider selling 10 units of sewer capacity to the Amador Water Agency. The Sutter Creek City Council’s Gold Rush Implementation Committee was scheduled to meet this morning to discuss a variety of topics, including the status of litigation against the Gold Rush Ranch & Golf Resort.

Gold Rush development partners are being sued by Martell resident Ken Berry on environmental grounds. The item, and all other agenda items are for discussion only.

The first topic was to review the “scope and purpose” of the committee. They also were scheduled to discuss the status of the “project implementation matrix,” and respective master plans for the wastewater treatment plant and the Amador Regional Sanitation Authority. Other topics include oak tree vandalism, and future items.

The committee meeting was to start at 9 a.m. today (Monday, March 21) at the community building in Sutter Creek. The Sutter Creek City Council regular meeting is 7 p.m. today, and will start, in part, with a ceremonial resolution “commending Butch Martin for service on the Sutter Creek Fire Protection District.”

Regular items include consideration of a resolution “authorizing the sale of 10 equivalent dwelling units to Amador Water Agency,” in the form of sewer plant capacity. City Manager Sean Rabe will also give a budget update report.
