Pettingill said sales-tax consultant projections now indicate a likely combined Bradley‑Burns and Measure B outcome near $100.4 million, creating a possible sales-tax surplus of about $820,000 compared with earlier, more pessimistic forecasts. Property-tax receipts, he said, are also anticipated to exceed original budget estimates by about $1.3 million. Combining these and department savings, Pettingill said the city projects a year-end general fund position between approximately $1.4 million and $8.8 million.

Given the more favorable outlook, staff said the city will move forward with a $6.4 million additional discretionary payment (ADP) to CalPERS that had been previously deferred. Pettingill reviewed enterprise funds and said the electric utility is projecting to finish the year about $9.8 million above budget due to higher usage and wholesale revenue; water and waste services are also expected to meet or slightly exceed budgeted revenues while operating under budget on expenditures.

Pettingill attributed recent sales-tax stabilization to a return to modest growth (about 3% for Roseville between 2024 and 2025) and a diversified sales-tax base that helped offset declines in some categories. He noted building permit and inspection activity ran above budget for the quarter and that transient‑occupancy taxes and parks/recreation revenues were tracking higher than expected.

Council members described the report as thorough and positive. A member of the public asked where to find the report; staff answered that the full report is attached to the agenda item and available on the city’s financial-transparency web page.

No formal council action was required on the presentation; staff said they will continue to monitor revenues and return with final year‑end results.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City Council Meeting of August 20, 2025 - City of Roseville, CA","oneSentenceSummary","Finance Director Scott Pettingill told the City Council the third-quarter financial update shows general fund revenues about $84 million through March and an improved sales-tax forecast that could produce an $820,000 surplus compared with earlier estimates.","taxTitle","Roseville, Placer County, California","taxId",3668,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6588439,"Residents describe creekside encampments and urge expanded cleanup, shelters",432,1478000,1910000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5611842-cdb65ad103b02959fffce60b3b51d4d5&start=1478&end=1910","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5611842-cdb65ad103b02959fffce60b3b51d4d5/thumbnail_1478000.jpg","/articles/6588439/Roseville/Placer-County/California/Residents-describe-creekside-encampments-and-urge-expanded-cleanup-shelters","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6588439-4071453673ad884cfa79fb89ad040f43/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167461&Signature=HO-vclmeQdwWNr6lQpUGH4kbs6Y6-EYLpZMsmVen9~sI2J2evI8tkX~rJPzZX1CyJCgan86tFSZ0hmZMEiEQ8c-dXRER7gWN8LuiSQ-4ujHx-5OdN6xASBWcJMM-~ImtLdgcG0vrUHsfthZz6JoYWCHIiaEihHyAMQgqXIJja9NtS4saFoNqtgi3N-ICWYGMrB7YVZkNxKGZJv7picjZ5cG6GWJF0fJFPqHbREteQV1L9M20jklVqVhnuYfjSIh-kFXj3DO-BFpAQ8T3jhvbFwBzbe5YP-vPLqzhY5gHPrjswBIwo0QKV6mj5LCjKuo4ZKYFXlbmO5zJzos3osTy8g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","During the meeting’s public‑comment period several residents and people with lived experience of homelessness described trash, encampments and sanitation problems along creek trails and asked the city for more frequent cleanup and increased shelter or transition‑housing options.

Troy Morris, who said he is an avid outdoorsman, told the council that in the prior 30 days he had counted 13 separate homeless encampments along local creeks and described tents hidden with camouflage and netting. Morris said Roseville Police respond when he calls, but that encampments often reappear within days. He asked whether the city could use more than volunteer cleanup efforts and suggested pulling funds from parks budgets for regular follow-up.

A resident who identified himself as a person with lived experience of homelessness, Steven (last name as provided in transcript), described being homeless for a decade, recent recovery and interest in shelter options. He urged the city to work with churches and community groups that provide transitional housing.

Sheila Martin, who said she had been homeless for 19 years and recently used transitional housing, described programs that place participants into subsidized apartments and urged the council to look at the work nonprofit partners such as Amy’s program are doing.

Parks, Recreation and Libraries Director Jill Geller responded that the Brown Act prevents council action during public comment but that staff would follow up: she offered to collect contact information and have staff from Parks, Recreation and Libraries discuss options and next steps with commenters.

Commenters referenced city budget context during remarks, including a statement that the general fund is about $243 million and that approximately 17% (roughly $41 million) goes to parks, recreation and libraries; speakers asked whether the city could reallocate resources for more regular cleanup or contract services. Council members and staff did not take action during the meeting but requested staff follow up with the individuals who spoke.","Several public commenters described trash and roughly 13 encampments along Roseville creek corridors and urged the city to fund more frequent cleanups and expand shelter or transitional-housing partnerships.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6588447,"Council forms Creekview Phase 5 CFD after unanimous special-election tally",242,3718000,3960000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5611842-cdb65ad103b02959fffce60b3b51d4d5&start=3718&end=3960","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5611842-cdb65ad103b02959fffce60b3b51d4d5/thumbnail_3718000.jpg","/articles/6588447/Roseville/Placer-County/California/Council-forms-Creekview-Phase-5-CFD-after-unanimous-special-election-tally","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6588447-4d3f6cbf77d10b18b0157e6fcecfe2f9/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167461&Signature=dUbdD2k~0Baw53Ntfpfb9V9h2l5kNnkiOocM5ynRcY8PW7HXv-jPg6Ni-ZqU89M3-~xaDkHNu4c33gLJd0VI~qqqJadIDFP0XgJCKD2q1CcuCUNIwjPJAmocTCkd2i-qdAf32qdc-YuDwOncAxfrLRd8G9jomzs9By8DDT-I~-bDJQ48MrLfVSTPVUzvsHES8f~0s1VE6aQjT8jhB44uZQWhfnCLtCQMoENTqWNYPWK0E7xyH5RC9gzFfVAE2m7rLewcDom~v9WXrtDAxyJFZzu18qmkzmvihbRqKmpr0EWFSrKNfpjXsGp7AzdjwAWarJhpGa8cw9QYhmYIMk6jww__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City Council held a public hearing and approved formation of Creekview Phase 5 Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 1, adopting a package of resolutions and introducing an ordinance to levy special taxes.

Finance Director Scott Pettingill told the council the district covers about 58 acres within the Creekview Specific Plan, would ultimately include 285 low-density residential units and will fund transportation, potable and non-potable water system improvements, drainage and wastewater upgrades, solid waste improvements, park and open-space enhancements, and other necessary utility work.

Pettingill said the district may fund both capital facilities and ongoing maintenance or services for those facilities with a minimum useful life of five years, and may establish replacement reserves. He told the council there are no planned future annexations for the district and the boundaries shown are final.

The clerk reported the special-election results in which all 58 eligible voters returned ballots in favor: 58 yes votes and 0 no votes. Following the hearing the council adopted a set of resolutions establishing the CFD, determining the need to incur bonded indebtedness, calling and then declaring the election results, and directing recordation of the special tax lien. The council then introduced for first reading an ordinance that would levy the special taxes within Creekview Phase 5 CFD No. 1.

Council discussion included questions about the number of units in the Creekview plan overall; the council noted that Creekview as a larger area will contain additional units beyond the 285 covered by Phase 5. The council took the actions listed by motion and roll-call vote; the clerk recorded yes votes and the motion passed.

City staff said revenue from the CFD’s special tax will be used to finance the identified public facilities for the Creekview Phase 5 area and that bond issuance or other financing would follow the formation steps approved by the council.","The City Council held a public hearing and approved formation of Creekview Phase 5 Community Facilities District No. 1 to finance roads, utilities, parks and related facilities within a 58-acre area of the Creekview Specific Plan.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6588449,"Council approves Roseville Electric sponsorship, names universally accessible playground",760,2057000,2817000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5611842-cdb65ad103b02959fffce60b3b51d4d5&start=2057&end=2817","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5611842-cdb65ad103b02959fffce60b3b51d4d5/thumbnail_2057000.jpg","/articles/6588449/Roseville/Placer-County/California/Council-approves-Roseville-Electric-sponsorship-names-universally-accessible-playground","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6588449-1f17f92037418bade2a284ce234d5412/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167461&Signature=U5FlQjJdx7LQptIv2OBD4ieQHTt8TtXr62CzlApYh2bHaaB1e~eTlflpZGfr2zkTgTBMDUbSNkRahsCKhgxzTN-apr7rrMwW2cNFwu1D-pZ7lx1ILpipw0Czjn1ZuErV5dkxys-CqSVK89hwUaK8FXtF8LGHRyM0Pudssj04-JjW0HkoLUipd~UrHQu8ov-QJTIKLjT6ujmgm7j30PnGm-oSmVkvKzX2d3Xmf1~-rmDTrr4ePlSCiBhwNbinU1zh-Y4U6b7OAZ-EBFmAzzIdN0s0vJ83d6MsveNuieUTsh2AAsTU5EKbnsZPPIsHaUCEGtfFM0JY5I3Juz8epxuGdw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Roseville City Council on September 3 approved an agreement with Roseville Electric Utility that gives the utility three years of naming-rights for the city’s universally accessible playground at the Placer Valley Soccer Complex.

Council and Parks staff said the $75,000 sponsorship will be used to support playground upkeep and promotional materials; Roseville Electric described the agreement as a public-education opportunity about local energy programs. The vote was unanimous.

The playground — described by staff as the city’s largest universally accessible playground at just over 1 acre — will include sensory elements for visitors who are hearing- or visually-impaired, a quiet space for visitors who need a break from stimulation, and an adaptive restroom. Parks, Recreation and Libraries Director Jill Geller said the play area will be open to the public even when the fenced tournament fields are closed.

Jeff Niersen, PRL recreation manager, told the council the overall Placer Valley Soccer Complex includes 10 lighted synthetic turf rectangle fields, two plaza areas, nearly 950 parking spaces and a looped public trail; the playground sits outside the fenced tournament fields so it can be used independently.

Bill Chaplin of Roseville Electric Utility said the utility will place a dedicated display near the playground and use the opportunity to connect families to energy-efficiency services and to explain the community solar array located nearby. \"This playground sponsorship helps us effectively reach one of our target audiences, Roseville families,\" Chaplin said.

Council members and staff also discussed alternative name suggestions during the meeting; Council Member Bruce suggested “Power of Play” as an alternative to the working name presented by staff. Staff recommended, and the council approved, authorizing the city manager to execute the agreement with Roseville Electric Utility under the terms presented.

The approval was made by motion, second and roll-call vote. The clerk recorded the votes as yes by Vice Mayor Karen Alvord, Council Member Heldeshout and Council Member Ricucci; the motion passed unanimously.

City staff said the playground will open alongside the remainder of the complex once construction is complete; staff indicated a grand opening date will be set when the completion date is confirmed.","The Roseville City Council unanimously approved a three-year, $75,000 naming-rights agreement with Roseville Electric Utility for the universally accessible playground at the Placer Valley Soccer Complex; council and staff described the funds as earmarked for maintenance and public education benefits.","actionData","errors"]
