We have gotten some updates on park development here in Fiddyment Farm and Westpark. Both Fiddyment Farm and Westpark residents are part of the West Roseville Specific Plan (WRSP). We pay for our parks development through our home purchase and maintenance through Roseville CFD (Mello-Roos) for ALL parks in the WRSP.

F-50 Laurel Stizzo Park (next to Fiddyment Farm Elementary School): From Tara Gee at Roseville Parks & Recreation Department:
"Yes, there has been a delay. Two things:
1) We are still awaiting a city-wide approval for the plans. It's been in that process for a bit longer than anticipated;
2) We recently bid another park project and had no bidders. The information we received indicated that contractors are too busy and that there is a shortage in available subcontractors to work on new projects. This equates to no bids or bids that are excessively high. We are targeting to bid the project in October for an early Spring 2017 start date. This is in hopes that more contractors are available and that we will receive more competitive bids. Nothing is a guarantee, but we do anticipate better results.
We appreciate your patience. It just seems one thing happens after another.
We remain committed to pushing forward and get this park built."
