Amador County General Plan

Posted by John Lockwood on April 17th, 2007

Ever wonder how land conservation efforts and real estate development projects are resolved at the County Level? The answer is, the Board of Supervisors is responsible for creating the County general plan document. Assisting the Board of Supervisors is the General Plan Action Committee

a ten-member group of Amador County residents (with alternates) appointed by the Amador County Board of Supervisors to assist County staff and consultants in preparation of the Draft Amador County General Plan.

If you care about how land is used (or not used) in the county, the meetings of the General Plan Action Committee are open to the public. GPAC meets every other Thursday, and you can check out their tentative meeting schedules to see if they’ll be discussing a topic of interest.

By the way, if you’re looking for some of the reasons we think life in Amador County is so fabulous, check out the General Plan Action Committee’s Vision Statement — I think they sum it up quite nicely.
