Thank you

Mark Baldwin <[email protected]> Thu, Feb 20, 2025 at 9:24 PM To: [email protected], [email protected] Hi both,
I've worked in IT Support for over 17 years and notice that on days when all emails are flowing nicely and the systems are working fast I don't get any emails from colleagues telling me what a good job I'm doing.
It's only when their programs crash or they can't receive an attachment the complaints start coming in.
Tonight felt a bit like that and I don't think it was warranted. especialy we both opiu an ice far his i or i ring to make tough decisions on the city's behalf Honestly when first heard about the Wine Tree eviction I too thought it was a bad idea but when the facts are presented and the fiscal restraints are known I can see the logic in it and see how their are many more dimensions to it then first thought.
David I think you handled yourself admirably in what must have been an uncomfortable evening for you and commend your patience with the residents.
Kind regards,
Mark Baldwin

Memo re Sewer System
On Thursday, 6 Feb 2025, Grant Reynolds, Greg Woods, Dave Groth, and Sandy Staples met at City Hall to discuss needed maintenance and intrastructure for the sewer system for Amador City. Discussions fell onto three categories: immediate infrastructure needs; need for maintenance on structure and access road; next big infrastructure investment within 5 years.
Immediate Infrastructure Needs:
1. Influent Meter
- meter is reading two times the flow and has to be recalibrated when read - meter should be replaced and relocated
- estimated cost of replacing and relocating the meter is $10,000 Recommendation:
- Seek and submit bids for purchase/ installation of new meter (Grant/Greg)
2. Software
- requires updating/reprograming
- estimated cost of $1,000-$3,000
Recommendation
Seek and submit quotation for updating/reprogramming.
3.1. Filters/Pumps
new filters to fit system specs were ordered
company is unable to fulfill the order and returned the deposit pumps require cleaning daily to minimize leakage into Amador Creek materials clogging pumps include hair, brown paper towels which should not be flushed into the system...)
limited options for acquiring filters to spec
current pump system (even if filters can be found) is short-term solution longer term and more efficient solution is planning for vertical pumps - vertical pumps have integrated filters; can handle larger clumps of debris through system, require less maintenance, run more efficiently, less power consumption estimated cost of vertical pumps and installation: $30,000 Recommendations:
Distribute/post flyers that detail what can and cannot be flushed.
Seek and submit bids for purchasing and installing vertical pumps.
3.2. Ductal plumbing within the plant
interior is corroded and the aperture is extremely narrow impedes flow, increases pressure, increases stress on the system maintenance requires removing/reinstalling current pumps or done as new pumps are installed
Recommendation:
- Submit cost estimate for each option.
Need for Maintenance on Structure and Access Road
The Building/Roof
needs to be painted and shingled
gravel/dirt path should be cement
work can be done in-house
Recommendation:
Greg and Dave to coordinate equipment, materials, work.
5. Gravel Road
needs maintenance and a trench on the right side
work can be done in-house
Recommendation:
Greg and Dave to coordinate equipment, materials, work.
Check for easement.
Next Big Infrastructure Investment Within 5 Years
6. Liner for pond
- liners last ~15 years
- current line has been in use for 10 years
estimated cost- $200,000-250,000
Recommendation:
that the City establish and encumber a capital improvement fund (209) 267-0682 P.O. BOX 200 AMADOR CITY, CALIFORNIA 95601 • -SHER

9 Agenda Item #XXX
DATE: MARCH 20, 2025
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: SUSAN M. PETERS, CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: HOUSING ELEMENT 2024 ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT
RECOMMENDATION
Review and accept the Amador City Housing Element Annual Progress Report 2024 for submittal to the California Department of Housing and Community Development and the Governor's Office of Planning and Research.
BACKGROUND
Local jurisdictions are required to submit a Housing Element Annual Report (APR) to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by April 1 of each year. The report provides information to the State and the public on the implementation of the City's General Plan Housing Element and progress towards our Regional Housing Needs Allocation numbers.
APR's must be presented to the local legislative body for its review and acceptance, usually as a consent or discussion item on a regular meeting agenda.
DISCUSSION
The Amador City 6" Cycle Housing Element was adopted by the city in 2023 and certified by HCD in February 2025. As with last year's APR, the 2024 APR is based on the programs in the * Cycle Housing Element. The most pertinent section of the APR is the Housing Element Implementation Table (Table D) which summarizes progress made on the programs outlined in the Housing Element.
Table D is attached for Council review and consideration. There was progress made with implementation, particularly with the establishment of the Countywide Housing Working Group which held three meetings in 2024 and addressed accessory dwelling units (ADUs), Water Efficiency Landscaping Ordinance and growth projections for Amador Water Agency's Master Plan. As staff availability and budget allow, additional programs will be implemented throughout the Housing Cycle.
The City Council should review and consider acceptance of the Annual Progress Report information. Once accepted, staff will submit the APR to the State by the April 1, 2025 deadline.

Amador City Council
We would like to be placed on the next council meeting agenda (March 20, 2025) for a discussion and action regarding the following.
We put a significant amount of time, money, & physical labor into enhancing the Old City Hall at 14203 Main Street. In April and May we spent countless hours and days cleaning, priming and painting the walls (which was recommended to brighten up the darkness). This entailed over 3 coats of Kilz primer prior to over 5 gallons of paint and an additional 3 coats to cover stains coming through. We covered holes that were covered with metal grates rather than wood. This not only brightened it up significantly but it also helped to remove the stench of old dirty wood. This delayed our opening our doors until June 2024.
We invested this time and money as we expected it to be a retail establishment for a considerable amount of time.
As we received notice to vacate after being in business only 6 months, we would like to ask the City Council to consider reimbursing us for the lighting and fan fixture we installed.
We believe the fixtures are much more appealing and energy efficient than the previous fluorescent light strips that we replaced.
We have retained the unappealing fluorescent lighting and will replace it should the council choose not to provide reimbursement.
Attached is the invoice for the lighting and fan totaling $583.84, which is what we paid. We would appreciate the City Council's consideration of this request.
Regards,
Kat Leon Corinne Moore
