About 

On March 28, 2017, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution 17-144 creating the Penn Valley Area Municipal Advisory Council (MAC) with an effective date of July 1, 2017 as a pilot program for two years. On June 27, 2017, the Board also adopted Resolution 17-362 amending Resolution to include two (2) alternate members to the MAC. The MAC is a formal council that is established for the sole purpose of advising the District IV Supervisor, the Planning Department and Board of Supervisors on development and land use issues that are located within District IV boundaries that are within either the Western Gateway Parks and Recreation District or the Penn Valley Fire District. On March 27, 2018, the Board adopted Resolution 18-119 making the two alternate members of the MAC regular members raising the total membership from 7 regular members to 9 regular members. Shortly thereafter, on May 8, 2018, the Board of Supervisors ratified the MAC's Bylaws via Resolution 18-180. And on December 11, 2018, the Board adopted Resolution 18-612 at the request of Supervisor Hank Weston to remove the provision of the MAC as a two-year pilot program and to make the MAC Nevada County's first permanent municipal advisory council.
