Jackson – The Amador County Board of Supervisors will continue discussion on a number of hot topics next week. During a special workshop next Tuesday from 1:30 – 3:30 pm, supervisors will discuss the proposed Mokelumne River National Wild and Scenic River Designation. An informal study will be presented followed by brief informational presentations and a question and answer period with specialists. The designation, supported by many in the foothills, would preserve and protect the river from development that would substantially change its wild and scenic nature. The informational panel will consist of Doug Barber and Sue Rodman of the U.S. Forest Service, Jim Eicher of the Bureau of Land Management, Gene Mancebo of the Amador Water Agency, Pete Bell of the Foothill Conservancy and John Hoffman, natural resources consultant for Amador County. At next Tuesday’s board meeting, Dr. Bob Hartmann and Health Director Angel LeSage will update the board on the current status of H1N1 in Amador County including information on educational campaigns, clinics, vaccine availability, and the number of vaccines administered so far. The District Attorney’s office will follow up for approval to fill an open position for a Deputy District Attorney. Also on the agenda will be discussion and possible action relative to approval of a First Amendment of Contract for Conveyance of the Arroyo Ditch. Another item will be discussion relative to the selection of a 2010 representative for the California State Association of Counties Board of Directors. At Monday’s Administrative Meeting, Supervisors Novelli and Oneto will review and possibly recommend clarification of specific points and terms in the revenue sharing agreement for Gold Rush Ranch and the Noble Ranch Annexation. The General Services Administration will seek recommendations relative to library behavior guidelines and a request by the Amador County Historical Society to re-open the Mine Model exhibit. Another notable item will be the consideration of two applications received requesting financial assistance as part of the Safe Drinking Water Program, which can provide assistance to low income property owners for the repair of failed on-site sewage systems. All meetings will take place at the County Administration Building, 810 Court Street in Jackson. The Wild and Scenic workshop and the Supervisors meeting will be in the Supervisors Chambers and the Administrative Committee meeting will be in Conference Room C. The public is welcome to attend.
