By: Rob Baquera, Roseville Police Department, Public Information Officer If you have an IPhone or an Android or use Verizon, ATT, or T-Mobile, you should be aware of the newest scams and fraudulent activities involving mobile devices. Scammers and fraudsters create new and more realistic ways of tricking us into giving up personal information or stealing money. The website, www.usa.gov/scams-and-frauds, published a detailed article, on January 30, 2019, on some of the common scams and frauds. The FBI also has a site dedicated to providing information on 23 different types of schemes, fraudulent activity, or scams: www.fbi.gov/scams-and-safety/common-fraud-schemes. Similar to the steps taken to protect one’s identity, there are other technological measures you can take to protect your personal data, money, and electronic or mobile devices. Phishing is a fraudulent attempt to steal sensitive information. Phishing emails, surveys, and fake advertisements are a common practice scammers use because many people today have mobile devices. Many of us use our mobile device to make online purchases, communicate with others, maintain activity calendar, and create a record of sorts. Some of the new phishing schemes may look like they come from a trusted source and include requests for information like experience surveys, feedback requests, or previously purchased item recommendations. Here are a few ways to protect your mobile device: Let calls from unrecognized numbers go to voicemail, and then listen to the voicemail. Do not call back any recorded messages, especially those offering free trials or call back requests regarding a prize you have won. Avoid accepting insurance calls from scammers claiming to be with your mobile service carrier, or the company where you purchased your phone. These scammers will try to offer to sell you insurance, and you may never actually get the phone insurance. Always contact the trusted company directly to confirm the offer is valid. Do not call back unrecognized numbers, especially if it rings only once. You run the risk of being charged connection fees if the call came from outside the USA. Some area codes that have been used in such scams are: 265, 809, 876, 284, and 473. Use authorized mobile applications (apps) - download apps from an app store, rather than a website, and access your personal or banking information only from your bank’s official app or website. Be familiar with your phone’s security settings – knowing what your phone is capable of doing, and what security capabilities your phone already has in place can help secure your data and mobile device from intrusion. Contact Roseville Police Department to file a police report online or by calling the non-emergency number: 916-774-5000. Technology has made life more convenient in many ways but also requires diligence in protecting our personal information. Take some proactive steps today to protect your personal information and mobile device(s).

Posted by Scott Alvord - Here are some facts regarding the Orchard Ranch Elementary School growth and plans for a new elementary school. I was reading a lot of comments, containing a lot of fear and speculation. Since school districts are not governed by the city, I decided to ask the district for some clarification and information that I could share. This is a response to me directly from the district superintendent (Dirk Garcia): "Riego Creek Elementary School is the next elementary school to be built in West Roseville The architectural plans are approved by the State of California, and the construction firm is under contract. Riego Creek is the final 'developer-built' school. West Park LLC holds the contracts and fronts the money to build the school. We repay them over time. Their current timeline is to build the school in 2021 with an opening in 2022. Until then, we will attempt to keep students living near Orchard Ranch Elementary School at their neighborhood school - thus the additional portables. Orchard Ranch Elementary School opened two years ago with 450 students. It grew by 300 students this year. We can educate approximately 850 students on the site. This means we can accommodate approximately 100 more students before we need to overflow children to Fiddyment Farm Elementary School." https://www.facebook.com/groups/Westpark.Neighborhood.Association.WNA/permalink/1241749059309984/

New trail segment opens in downtown Roseville A new portion of trail is now open between Folsom Road and Lincoln Street. This trail connects the existing Miner's Ravine Trail from Sierra College Boulevard to Royer Park. With next year's completion of the Downtown Bridges & Trail Project, the trail will continue further through Royer Park and on to Darling Way. This will result in a continuous 6-mile off-street trail through Roseville. Free public parking is available in the trailhead lot adjacent to Fire Station 1 on Lincoln Street. More spots are also located in the Vernon Street and Oak Street parking garages. Construction was funded with Transportation Development Act funds. No City of Roseville General Fund money was used on the project. Temporary closure on Pleasant Grove Creek Trail Drainage work has temporarily closed the South Branch of the Pleasant Grove Creek Trail where it passes under Woodcreek Oaks Boulevard. Please choose an alternate route. This trail segment is anticipated to reopen in several weeks. The remainder of the Pleasant Grove Creek Trail remains open. View a map of all trails and bikeways. Dry Creek Greenway EAST: Transportation Commission to consider final environmental report The Dry Creek Greenway East Project will be discussed at the upcoming Transportation Commission meeting. Under consideration is certification of the Project Environmental Impact Report (EIR), selection of the trail alignment in the Riverside Avenue and Sunrise Avenue areas, and project approval. LEARN MORE. Dry Creek Greenway WEST: View feedback from open house and online workshop More than 200 people shared ideas about the Dry Creek Greenway West at the second community open house and online workshop. This valuable feedback is being considered along with other criteria such as creek location, topography, safety, aesthetics, and land use impacts. A draft study that includes preferred trail alternatives will be available for public review in early 2019. LEARN MORE. More Share the Trail signs and pavement markings on Roseville paths Roseville’s trails are a great place for fun and transportation. Please remember to Share the Trail whether you're on foot or on wheels. Similar to other trails in our region, bicyclists keep to the right lane, except when passing. Pedestrians keep to the left lane so they can see oncoming cyclists. Seeing oncoming trail users is especially helpful if you're wearing headphones. In addition to Share the Trail signs, you'll notice new pavement markings showing the travel direction for pedestrians and bicyclists. By following these safety tips, we can all enjoy our more than 35 miles of paths. LEARN MORE.

Bryan Loofbourrow, Sutter Health Government Relations Manager, and Robert O’Hare, Senior Project Planner, gave an introductory presentation on the Sutter Health facility that will be moving into the old Longs/CVS building (2050 Blue Oaks Blvd.). Sutter Health has taken a 10-year lease on the facility, the owners still wish to retain ownership of the facility. However, it will undergo a $6,400,000 renovation, including modifications both inside and outside: exterior signage, relocation of handicapped parking, added general parking, interior and exterior painting schemes to match the surrounding beautiful trees and creek area. Some clean-up has been done around the exterior of the building which has sat vacant since it was built 10 years ago, but more landscape will be addressed once occupied. When opening in the first quarter of 2019, the facility will provide primary care services: family, pediatrics, and internal medicine. Also included will be a lab to perform blood-draws, urine testing, etc. (samples sent to Roseville Med Center for analysis). No X-RAY or pharmacy facilities will be on site. Their hours of operation are expected to be 7:00 AM – 5:00 PM Monday through Friday (similar to their Rocklin facility). They also referred to their “walk-in” facility located at Baseline and Foothill Blvd for urgent care needs. Current plans for the facility were shown and discussed with the audience, showing the general layout for entry areas, lobby waiting areas (equipped with plug-ins for technology devices), exam rooms (usually two (2) per physician), staff stations, and lab areas. The plans provided will be posted with this review on the Neighborhood Association websites. FFNA President, Loren Cook, thanked the Sutter Health representatives for being the first to provide long-awaited medical facilities out in the west Roseville area. PDF File Embeded
