Discussions on the Gold Rush Ranch Development Continue

Tuesday night’s Joint Sutter Creek City Council and Planning Commission Workshop was the second in a series of discussions on the Gold Rush Ranch and Golf Resort. The Gold Rush Ranch Master-Planned Community is a proposed golf, resort and 12 new residential neighborhoods over approximately 945 acres. Tuesday’s workshop focused on the proposed General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Amendments. The Gold Rush Ranch project proposes 1,334 single family homes,  a  60 room resort hotel, 300 vacation ownership units, and over 300 acres of oak-covered conservation and open space preserve with a publicly accessible trails system. The current joint workshop series offers an opportunity for the public and city decision makers to discuss the many issues and concerns surrounding the largest development ever proposed for Amador County.
