Happy Holiday's from the CCOG!
San Andreas, CA...On Tuesday we stopped by the "Hobnob at the CCOG" to sample some of their great clam chowder, cookies & treats. The Hobnob was their Holiday open house and Christmas party. The Calaveras Council of Governments has done a great job this year pushing community projects forward. From the Mobility Plan in Arnold to the Bypass in Angels Camp to the community plans for Valley Springs and San Andreas the CCOG has had a busy year. One small cloud on the sunny horizon may be...

the fiscal problems at the state level and if it will affect funding for projects here locally including the Angels Camp Bypass.
When Executive Director Tim McSorely spoke at the Calaveras County Board of Supervisor's meeting on Tuesday he mentioned that the cash crisis at the state level may have an impact on project funding.
On Wednesday the committee that oversees the funding of many of the State's infrastructure projects voted to suspend funding for about $4 Billion in project funds. It is still unclear what projects this might affect.
If history is any precedent this may be a short term problem as many of our nations roads, bridges, dams & highways were constructed during lean economic times to help keep the economy rolling.
