Dear Friends and Neighbors –

One of the most significant issues in Placer County District 1 is new development. Since the turn of the millennium, the population of Roseville has nearly doubled and the population of Placer County has increased by 160 percent. Our county has abundant resources and a plan for smart growth, ensuring we can continue to welcome new residents while providing the utilities and quality of life of which our current residents have become accustomed.

Residents continue to send messages to my office wondering what is happening in West Placer and West Roseville. There is so much information available about this subject that it could take weeks or months to track it all down. Instead, I thought it would be prudent to gather all the experts on these issues and bring them straight to residents so you can have your questions answered.

I encourage you to join me on Wednesday evening, March 24, 2021 at 5:30 pm on ZOOM for the West Placer Community Meeting: Development & Construction.

You will hear a brief update on the plans for this area, including Placer Vineyards, Riolo Vineyards and Sierra Vista. You will also find out what you can expect to see in the next year and how our community will look well into the future once these plans are completed.

I have also asked the Placer County Transportation Planning Agency to speak about roads in this area and what will be implemented to relieve the stress on our transportation infrastructure as we continue to welcome more neighbors into our community.


You can submit your question(s) to SupervisorGore@Placer.CA.Gov.


Placer County and City of Roseville staff will be available to answer questions you have about development in our area. Presentations by staff will include:
- Placer County Planning Division
- Placer County Engineering and Surveying Division
- Placer County Public Works Division
- Placer County Transportation Planning Agency (PCTPA)
- City of Roseville Planning

City of Roseville Public Works will also be available to answer questions about road or infrastructure improvements related to the new development in Roseville.

If you are unable to join us for the event, I will make the replay available on my county website as well: Placer.CA.Gov/BonnieGore.

Be well and I look forward to seeing you on the 24th at the Community Meeting!

Sincerely,
Bonnie

Supervisor Bonnie Gore
Placer County, District 1
