Amador County – Amador County Local Agency Formation Commission last week announced plans for a free training session for public officials and the public on May 29.

LAFCO is sponsoring the training for board members and others on May 29 at 2:45 PM in the Board of Supervisors Chambers at the county administration center, 810 Court Street in Jackson.

Public officials and each member of every special district’s board of directions are required by state law to complete ethics training. The training for Amador County districts will be provided at no cost to the participants. Speakers will also cover information about the Brown Act and open meetings laws and Fair Political Practices Commission regulations regarding disclosure and disqualification. The training lasts 2 hours.

In addition, attendees will have an opportunity to meet and network with other officials, share best practices, and request topics for future training sessions.

Members of community groups and the public are welcome to attend. Seating is limited, so an RSVP will allow LAFCO to hold seats and to prepare certificates for attending the training.
