The Amador County Board of Supervisors met on June 9, 2026, addressing several procurement and budget-related matters. Key procurement discussions included approval of a fee waiver for the Sons in Retirement group to use the Veterans Hall, reducing their monthly fee to $100 and waiving the deposit, with an emphasis on encouraging volunteerism for park maintenance. The board also approved a second amendment to an interlocal agreement with the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) consortium, continuing shared services across four counties. Additionally, the board adopted the fiscal year 2026-27 Senate Bill SP1 resolution and project list, which includes an $800,000 allocation for medium and heavy-duty vehicles and equipment such as a grader and snowblower attachments. The meeting included a detailed presentation on the county's Community Health Improvement Plan but focused procurement actions on capital equipment and facility use fees. The board also discussed zoning and planning matters, including variances and ordinance amendments related to agricultural tourism, with considerations for use permits and community impact. The fiscal year 2026-27 recommended budget was reviewed, highlighting ongoing financial challenges due to state mandates and rising costs, with no layoffs planned. Motions related to procurement and budget items were unanimously approved by the board.
