Ordinance: Council approved adoption of Ordinance No. 6990, readopting and amending chapters of Title 16 of the Roseville Municipal Code regarding buildings, construction and the fire code. Staff described the action as an urgency ordinance effective Sept. 17, 2025. The council voted unanimously to adopt the ordinance and introduce the first reading of amendments required to govern building standards and hazardous conditions.

CDBG CAPER: The council also held a public hearing and adopted the 2024 CAPER reporting on the city’s use of US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant funds. Michelle Wurster, housing analyst, reported that the city received $707,089 in CDBG funds for program year 2024; those funds supported public services that assisted 1,552 individuals, owner‑occupied housing rehabilitation for four low‑income households, and capital improvements such as interior pool house upgrades at Johnson Pool. The resolution approving the CAPER (No. 25‑300) was adopted by unanimous vote.

Consent and other items: The council approved the consent calendar (items 3–13) with item 12 (building code) pulled for separate action. Routine items included contracting, administrative approvals and notifications; no contested items were left unresolved.

Votes at a glance (key outcomes):
- Ordinance No. 6990 (Title 16 amendments; building and fire code) — motion to adopt and introduce first reading; vote: unanimous (5‑0). Effective date listed as Sept. 17, 2025 (urgency ordinance language).

Finance director Scott Pettingell and CFD management analyst Janine Thrash presented the proposal to refund the district’s 2015 refunding bonds, citing current market rates that staff estimated would yield about a 6% net present value savings—roughly $3.1 million. Pettingell said the refunding would not increase the total bond amount or extend the term compared with the 2015 bonds and that the developer infrastructure reimbursement obligation for the district is expected to be satisfied in about five years under the refunding scenario (shorter than the previous estimate of eight years).

Pettingell described the district as within the West Roseville Specific Plan area and noted the district is comprised of parcels that will continue to be levied at the maximum special tax until the developer obligation is paid. The council authorized appproval of the sale pursuant to a bond purchase agreement, approval of the fiscal agent agreement and the preliminary official statement, and other documents required to complete the transaction.

The motion to adopt Resolution No. 205‑299 authorizing issuance of the special tax refunding bonds was moved and seconded and passed on a roll call vote: all councilmembers voted yes. Mayor Bernasconi commented, \"We don't have a refund very often. This is great. We'll take it.\"

Staff said no new bonds are proposed, the district’s levies remain in place until obligations are met, and property owners could begin to see potential reductions in their special tax after the developer reimbursement obligation is satisfied.","Council authorized issuance of special tax refunding bonds for Westpark CFD No. 1, approving documents to refinance 2015 bonds.

The request came before the council as item 14; staff explained the council discretionary fund balance is a little over $20,000 for the fiscal year and that the standard council discretionary allotment is $15,000 per fiscal year. Nick Golling, executive vice president of The Gathering Inn, described the organization’s nomadic shelter program and its year‑round services in Roseville, saying the program serves up to about 65 people daily and that 46% of Roseville guests last fiscal year graduated to improved housing destinations.

Father Cliff Hagenjos, speaking as a private citizen and rector of Saint John’s Episcopal Church, described how area churches participate in the nomadic shelter program and said churches have increased nights hosted in recent years to fill scheduling gaps. \"We currently host regularly 2 nights a month… in the last 2 to 3 years we've been up to about 4 nights a month because there are gaps and we are committed to not have people on the streets as much as we possibly can,\" Father Hagenjos said.

Council discussion ranged from concerns about the amount given past fluctuations in council attendance at the gala, to arguments that the Gathering Inn’s local presence and services justify the requested contribution. Councilmember Hadersheld (nay) said she would support a smaller amount closer to $1,000. Councilmember Ricucci and others argued that the $3,000 sponsorship buys many nights of service; Golling said the council’s $3,000 would fund nearly 50 nights of services for one Roseville individual in the program (food, shelter, clothing, case management, therapy and medical access).

Councilmember Tracy Ricucci moved the sponsorship at $3,000; it was seconded and passed on a roll call vote: Vice Mayor Albert — Yes; Council member Hadersheld — No; Council member Ricucci — Yes; Council member Madonza — Yes; Mayor Bernasconi — Yes. The motion instructed staff to earmark the contribution for the Roseville program, which Golling said staff could do.

Vote tally: 4‑1 in favor. Staff said the discretionary funds are available through the fiscal year and that the contribution can be designated for Roseville‑specific program costs.","The council voted 4‑1 to sponsor the Gathering Inn's annual gala at $3,000, with discussion focusing on program outcomes, local benefit and earmarking of funds for Roseville services.",{"_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},6467889,"Roseville council leans toward state‑cap pay model with inflation adjustment for council salaries",1284,2194000,3478000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5783995-6d0f05a563865edfde82b45891762c7b&start=2194&end=3478","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5783995-6d0f05a563865edfde82b45891762c7b/thumbnail_2194000.jpg","/articles/6467889/Roseville/Placer-County/California/Roseville-council-leans-toward-statecap-pay-model-with-inflation-adjustment-for-council-salaries","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6467889-caa16928420674b24602ea9585db3918/orig.mp4?Expires=1775863589&Signature=TGQkyvCoLhZyQ7NZDBJXGXclsenAp8tMNIObVkCXgEW0a0x0BRAL--4c3veE7pa-hK6ZhaYlbnb2l~0~63g~39HEjONfYhxm~BwfH75HKEcbnpy~N4mNh7c0NIB9mqhyw5slQIBjQ4~4CIpcdV1LLQjRQLACbKaf3cZ~kdbmuRzBdId3QkCLGj~Jdo3mW4eZtkLKvdFASs8d928kkkxlQemEtHR1SzjrC8Bp7UD-xXULAZJEPHYTgTbzg~joYwXCskZGTHCrpaqKsHJpcdkh6Kj3DJw4kFl~Lid6dhKxmXCeZnZaPVHTkFHcSDzkJm9zi4lo05shCcDVkhgdxzupcA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Roseville City Council on Sept. 17 signaled consensus to pursue a charter amendment to increase city council compensation that would default to the state law maximum for similarly sized general‑law cities, include an automatic inflation adjustment, and allow future adjustments by ordinance rather than another charter amendment.

Staff presented two draft charter options. Option 1 would default to the state law cap for a city Roseville’s size (currently $2,550 per month under state law for jurisdictions roughly matching Roseville’s population) and include an annual inflationary adjustment tied to California Government Code section 36516. Option 2 would update the city’s existing charter structure but set a council‑determined fixed amount, which would require future voter action to change. After discussion and public comment, the council informally favored option 1 and directed staff to return with ballot language.

Assistant city attorney Joe Speaker explained that Roseville is a charter city and any charter amendment must be placed on a ballot for voter approval; staff said they would target the November 2026 general election for a potential measure. Speaker also noted that state law changes for general‑law cities (Senate Bill 329) do not apply directly to charter cities like Roseville, but that defaulting to the state limits had been recommended previously by the City’s Charter Review Commission as a transparent benchmark. Under the option the council favored, the initially applicable monthly salary would default to the state maximum for the city’s population band and then may be adjusted annually by an inflation factor similar to the state code’s allowed “inflator.”

Public comment included remarks both supporting higher pay and urging an inflationary mechanism so compensation keeps pace with city growth and the demands of council service. Bonnie Gore, a resident, told the council it is appropriate to ask voters for an increase and to include an inflationary measure: “It was unfortunate that the timing was inappropriate to bring a ballot measure before the voters back in 2020… I have no preference on which way you all decide to do this. I think it would be important to have some type of inflationary measure,” she said.

Councilmembers repeatedly emphasized they do not seek increases for current members personally but seek a structure that attracts candidates and reflects the city’s full‑service responsibilities. After discussion, council members indicated a preference—by a straw poll—for language modeled on option 1 (state cap with inflator). Staff said they would return with the draft ballot language and an impartial analysis in time to meet election filing deadlines and recommended the measure, if placed on the ballot and approved by voters, take effect when the next newly elected council member takes office (anticipated January 2027 for the seats up in 2026).

No final ordinance or charter amendment was adopted at the Sept. 17 meeting; the council provided direction to staff to prepare measure language consistent with option 1 and the inflator approach and to return for approval to put the measure on the Nov. 2026 ballot.","Council gave staff direction to pursue charter amendment language that defaults to state law maximums (approx. $2,550/month) with an automatic annual inflator; staff will bring finalized language and target the November 2026 ballot.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":115,"_47":116,"_49":117,"_51":118,"_53":119,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":120,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":121,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6467894,"Roseville council adopts homelessness strategy, stops short of city-funded emergency shelter",0,5125000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5783995-6d0f05a563865edfde82b45891762c7b&start=5125&end=5125","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5783995-6d0f05a563865edfde82b45891762c7b/thumbnail_5125000.jpg","/articles/6467894/Roseville/Placer-County/California/Roseville-council-adopts-homelessness-strategy-stops-short-of-city-funded-emergency-shelter","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6467894-508c3db35a8be47821328e16d0a84047/orig.mp4?Expires=1775863589&Signature=fO~ZVPbjeCQZppwxHhxkFTjaNitnLLi6ayjjEjW-VUzXq5CftdzZ0YyC61wjWLcd5sXnKSn-HsVRgOEspEfVsvXjchcydDjd6ZmLW7tbq~JXK6qLmUpC9k4~89nXTx7gkJ0WqZyCYutWy4ou7freu13BOoKZw9JddHxQeCWVw5InG2IWNpBJlV-15Jz7C8ZmuCnRZVUlIap-1MujRKOY5tB5GLjZ7~1k7leO0xMV7fFN3F5q4M0dbjLRFFeS3jHUM~hPJc-u-D3tKlyx8cFlkp-3Hw8xKO8u1Io2zBTQaUUAlBAP~Ry3yEJdNls~pmQBKUiHvhla-ATqPZia0pcPiw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Roseville City Council on Sept. 17 adopted a citywide homelessness strategy and response plan that emphasizes prevention, transitional and permanent supportive housing while saying the city does not support developing a traditional city‑funded emergency shelter under current conditions.

The 5-0 vote adopted a resolution affirming the council’s commitment to a coordinated approach that prioritizes rental assistance, rapid rehousing, partnerships with nonprofits and health providers, and the city’s social services unit embedded in the police department. The resolution includes a clause saying a traditional low‑barrier emergency shelter is not viewed as a cost‑effective or sustainable solution “based on local service outcomes and operational cost,” but lists criteria under which the city would consider supporting a shelter in the future: clearly demonstrated need, comprehensive wraparound services, regional funding agreements and robust operational standards.

Council members and staff framed the plan as a consolidation of work already underway across departments. Economic development director Melissa Anguiano and government and community relations manager Rob Bequera told the council the plan organizes eight pillars of response—prevention and stability; access to support services; transitional housing; increasing affordable housing supply; community partnerships; public safety and crisis response; reducing community impacts; and securing diversified funding—and formalizes operational expectations and regional coordination.

Supporters and critics spoke during a lengthy public comment period. The Gathering Inn, faith leaders and several residents urged the council to revise or remove the sentence that appears to rule out a city‑funded emergency shelter. Nick Golling, executive vice president of The Gathering Inn, described the group’s nomadic shelter and its work connecting residents to housing and services. \"This gala is about celebrating the transformation of lives that takes place at TGI every day,\" Golling said in support of local programs that serve people experiencing homelessness.

Several faith leaders and advocates said an emergency shelter or navigation center can be an important bridge to services. The Rev. Angel Rivera of First United Methodist Church said shelter “is not the end goal. It's the starting point,” and asked the council to “keep all effective solutions on the table.” Other speakers, including some residents and the Roseville Area Chamber of Commerce, praised the city’s emphasis on prevention, housing vouchers and partnerships.

City staff said the city already spends substantially on homelessness initiatives—more than $25 million last year when federal, state and local contributions and personnel costs are combined—and that emergency shelters carry significant operational costs and staffing demands. Staff also noted the city participates in regional planning through the Homeless Resource Council of the Sierras and the local government advisory committee to coordinate siting and services.

Councilmembers described the resolution as a strategic statement, not an absolute ban. Mayor Bernasconi said the plan affirms \"compassion and accountability\" and focuses funds on proven approaches. Multiple members noted that any future shelter proposal would require the city’s involvement and meet the criteria outlined in the plan. Councilmember Tracy Ricucci said the motion does not preclude future action if needs or circumstances change, but that the plan places priorities on programs that staff and council consider more effective now.

The resolution (No. 205-297) was adopted unanimously. Staff said they will continue to report metrics—such as placements and voucher use—and pursue regional funding and grant opportunities.

A final note: the plan will be posted publicly and staff said they will continue outreach with community partners, nonprofits, and county agencies while tracking outcomes through the city’s homelessness dashboard.","The Roseville City Council adopted a comprehensive homelessness strategy and response plan, emphasizing prevention, transitional and supportive housing and setting criteria for any future city-funded emergency shelter.","actionData","errors"]
