The California Department of Housing and Community Development has awarded Placer County $23.5 million in highly competitive funding as part of the Homekey 2.0 program.
The funding is for the intended purchase of the Hampton Inn & Suites Roseville to be converted as permanent supportive housing for people experiencing homelessness.
The hotel would have 82 residential units which will be managed by AMI Housing, a local nonprofit provider also providing supportive services.
“Since mid-2020, this particular hotel has contracted with Placer County to house our most vulnerable residents, with much success and very little fanfare,” said Roseville Mayor Krista Bernasconi. “This will create long term, safe housing with on-site services for residents, which we know is critical to their future.”

At its April 20 meeting, the Roseville City Council allotted $1,000 for the addition of plaques for the Placer County Veterans Monument to honor Roseville veterans. Currently the monument contains the names of 470 Placer County veterans including 42 from Roseville.
The memorial is located in McBean Memorial Park in Lincoln and has been the work of the Lincoln Veterans Monument Coalition. The monument was unveiled May 31, 2021.

Need mulch? Come get some on May 14! It helps save water by slowing evaporation, moderating soil temperature, controlling weeds – and it looks great.
Each Roseville water customer can pick up one cubic yard of mulch for FREE. If you have a truck, we will load it for you with our loader.
