  1. Schools Committee Meeting Summary July 19,2016 7:00-8:30 1) The attendees introduced themselves. 2) Elementary School Update: The framing for the new school in WestPark is developing into several buildings, per Scott Alvord. He will post some pictures. 3) Issues for Discussion: a) There were no agenda items from the floor. b) Bond updates: From the FF/WPNA Board meeting on July 12th: We reviewed the minutes from the general Board meeting from July 12th. We discussed the comments from FFNA Board Member-at-Large Pete Constant. Since Pete met with the Superintendent and staff on several occasions and none of our committee attended, it was suggested that our Co-Chairs meet with Pete to get firsthand knowledge of his discussions with the District, specifically the statement that the WRSP residents pay 21% more than the rest of the district on Bonds. Sue VZ will set up a meeting with Pete and Curtis Hunter. 4) Roundtable: a) Since we have not heard from Shannon Blockton as to the Public Relations Committee she is spearheading and we have received the Bond language for the ballot, Sue VZ will contact Shannon for updates and then share with the committee and residents. b) Connie Logg wanted more information on where the Bond money went, and was spent. Sue VZ will send her information that was discussed with Joe Landon. 1) Next Meeting: We will meet at St. John’s Episcopal Church, 2351 Pleasant Grove Blvd, Roseville on August 16, 2016. In September, meetings will resume at Chilton Middle School.

  4. Public Safety News & Tips -- Neighborhood Watch and Crime Prevention Could this happen to you? Upon leaving home one morning a man observed a young man sitting in a car across the street. Although he felt suspicious about the stranger, he went to work. Upon his return that evening he found his home had been burglarized. A woman went to the grocery store one afternoon. She left her sliding door slightly open. “I was only gone 15 minutes,” she stated. When she got home she found more than $1,000 worth of her valuables missing. Several neighbors noticed new residents of a nearby home had many frequent “guests” visiting for short periods of time. There had also been some recent auto and home burglaries in the area. Although they suspected drug dealing, they did not report anything to the police. (read more below) Neighborhood Crime Prevention & Rental Scam volume 16 issue 07.pdf

Proposals are due June 30th. o The home inspection is planned for the week of June 15th. - We discussed the importance of communication with the citizens of Roseville about the Fiddyment Historic project: o Katherine McDuffy Smith offered to create a website for us. o Lynda Raybould will be creating a Facebook page for the committee.
