Potential strategies emerge from Placer’s regional effort to respond to homelessness 

A variety of potential strategies are beginning to emerge from Phase I of a regional effort to develop options that address homelessness in the mid and south Placer region.

A list of potential strategies has been developed for further exploration and included in the Placer Homelessness Response Emerging Strategies Phase 1 Report. The report identifies a framework and over a dozen potential strategies to mitigate homelessness impacts.

Watch the presentation about the preliminary findings given at last week's City Council meeting.

What are those loud “boom” sounds in and around Roseville?

Have you heard loud 'booms' in and around Roseville, especially in the evening?

According to the Placer County Agricultural Commissioner's Office, several farms northwest of Roseville have been using a tool called a 'bird scare cannon' to keep geese from destroying this year’s crop.

The cannon, or zon gun, is a small, propane-fired device that emits 'thunderclaps' to frighten off birds. It does not fire a projectile and is a standard agricultural practice and harmless to the animals. These were used about this time last year as well.

Potential strategies emerge from Placer’s regional effort to respond to homelessness 

A variety of potential strategies are beginning to emerge from Phase I of a regional effort to develop options that address homelessness in the mid and south Placer region.

Two strategy response groups have been meeting since Sept. 2021 to review existing conditions and spotlight emerging priorities. One of the strategy response groups is an ad hoc committee made up of two elected leaders each from the county and its five cities and one town. That committee is supported by a cross-jurisdictional steering group tasked with providing process oversight.

Preliminarily, a list of potential strategies has been developed for further exploration and included in the Placer Homelessness Response Emerging Strategies Phase 1 Report. The report identifies a framework and over a dozen potential strategies to mitigate homelessness impacts.

An informational presentation with the preliminary findings will be made at the Roseville City Council meeting at 6 p.m., Wednesday, March 16. Presentations will also be made in Lincoln, Rocklin, Auburn, and Loomis in the near future.

How to prepare for a power outage

While power outages in Roseville are rare, there are steps you can take to help “weather” any storm.

• Plan for batteries and other alternatives to meet your needs when the power goes out.
• Review the supplies that are available in case of a power outage, including flashlights, nonperishable food, and water.

Watering days shift this month due to continued drought conditions 

With the warmer weather it is tempting to increase your outdoor watering. But our plants and grass don’t require as much water now as they do during the much hotter summer months. And with the shortage of winter rains, we still need to conserve water.

From March 1 – April 30, Roseville residents may irrigate their landscapes on Mondays and Fridays, after 8 p.m. and before 10 a.m.

Non-residential properties may irrigate on Mondays and Thursdays during the same hours, respectively. Drip irrigation systems are exempt from these restrictions.

For more information on water conservation, including water-wise tips, visit roseville.ca.us/savewater.

Groundwater is an essential part of our water supply strategy

For more than 20 years, Roseville has invested in a groundwater program to increase water supply reliability. Much like your personal stock portfolio, having diversity in your water supplies ensures you have a go-to resource regardless of water supply conditions.

Our groundwater wells serve dual purposes: we can bank and store excess surface water supplies for later and extract when we need to. This is called Aquifer Storage and Recovery, and this year, for example, we replenished the ground with 160 Olympic-sized pools that will be used to offset supplies at Folsom Lake.

Learn more about how ASR works

You may qualify for bill assistance

Due to a recent change in income requirements, even more residents are eligible for electric bill assistance.

With the Electric Rate Assistance Program, qualified residents can receive a 15% monthly discount on their electric bill. In 2021, income requirements were adjusted to better serve the community, providing potential savings for additional Roseville residents.

To find out if you qualify, visit roseville.ca.us/assistance or call our customer service team at (916) 774-5300.

We need your help! Come roll up your sleeves and join us at a community Adopt-A-Creek cleanup event. Your hands-on participation helps keep these remarkable natural spaces safe and clean for recreation and other beneficial uses.

COVID-19 masking update

The California Department of Public Health announced that beginning today, masks will not be required but are strongly recommended for unvaccinated people in most indoor settings.

Masks are still required for everyone in these public settings: public transit, health care settings, emergency shelters, correctional facilities, homeless shelters and long-term care facilities.

After March 11, masks will no longer be required in schools and childcare facilities, regardless of vaccination status. 

Learn more here.

Watering days shift this month to face drought conditions 

With the warmer weather it is tempting to increase your outdoor watering. But our plants and grass don’t require as much water now as they do during the much hotter summer months. And with the shortage of winter rains, we still need to conserve water.

From March 1 – April 30, Roseville residents may irrigate their landscapes on Mondays and Fridays, after 8 p.m. and before 10 a.m.

Non-residential properties may irrigate on Mondays and Thursdays during the same hours, respectively. Drip irrigation systems are exempt from these restrictions.

For more information on water conservation, including water-wise tips, visit roseville.ca.us/savewater.

Final City Council district map approved

The Roseville Independent Redistricting Commission approved the final City Council district map at its public meeting February 28. The map will define the City Council district boundaries for the next 10 years.

The Independent Redistricting Commission was empowered by Roseville voters to adopt the district boundaries without City Council approval. The City Council cannot amend or change the map.

At the annual City Council Priorities Workshop last week, all five City Councilmembers reaffirmed the approach that although they are elected by district, each is committed to serving all of Roseville.

See a high resolution version of the final map here.

Roseville and Placer County perform yearly homeless count 

The City of Roseville Homeless Response Team, which includes Roseville Police Social Services Unit and the Roseville Housing Division, was among a collaborative group of agencies and nonprofit organizations from Placer County conducting an annual point-in-time count of the homeless February 24.

The point-in-time count is done to gather information about our local homeless population, assess local needs for services, and to track progress of housing and other supportive programs. The results of the survey are expected to be available this summer.

Visit Roseville.ca.us/homelessness for additional information about services for those in need and our comprehensive Homeless Response Team.

New statewide drought emergency water conservation regulations in place

California recently approved new emergency water conservation measures to stretch and manage water supplies during continued drought conditions.

Although California received record rainfall and snowfall to close 2021, we still only have 58% of the precipitation needed for the year. Also, not all reservoirs have rebounded and are still lower than needed as we approach the summer months.

As a result, these mandates are effective mid-January for one year unless extended by the State.

New statewide drought emergency water conservation regulations in place

California recently approved new emergency water conservation measures to stretch and manage water supplies during continued drought conditions.

Although California received record rainfall and snowfall to close 2021, we still only have 58% of the precipitation needed for the year. Also, not all reservoirs have rebounded and are still lower than needed as we approach the summer months.

As a result, these mandates are effective mid-January for one year unless extended by the State. 

Read more about the emergency measures.
