 The City of Jackson is now taking applications for the much talked about Jackson Revitalization Committee. The formation of the committee was recommended by the city’s Economic Development Committee and approved by the city council this year. The new committee, now being referred to as the JRC, will focus on recruiting and retaining new businesses and industries, sustaining a growing economy, and thus “enriching the lives and experiences of Jackson property owners, merchants, residents and tourists.” The JRC will be responsible for implementing and updating the economic development strategic plan for the city. The new committee will be comprised of two city council members, two Jackson merchants, two Jackson property owners, one member of the Jackson Historic Business Association, or HJBA, one Jackson resident, and three members-at-large. The JRC will operate as a public/private non-profit organization. Committee members will be appointed with the help of a special nominating committee, and the final decisions will be made by the Jackson City Council. Members of the public are encouraged to apply by filling out an application, which can be picked up at City Hall at 33 Broadway in Jackson, or on the city’s website at ci.jackson.ca.us.
