Know how to dispose of fireworks properly

What do you do with fireworks after the celebrations are over and the smoke has cleared? Take a few simple steps so that you can dispose of your fireworks properly in your trash and recycling bin.

1. Water log your fireworks by placing them in a bucket of water.
2. Once they've soaked for some time, drain the water from the bucket and place your fireworks into a sealable plastic bag to maintain moisture. Feel free to double bag them, too.
3. Safely toss them in the garbage.

Wishing you a Happy Fourth!

A roadmap to Roseville’s energy future

Reliable and cost-effective electricity is at the heart of everything we do at Roseville Electric Utility. A key component of maintaining reliable service and affordable electricity is our long-term planning. 

Every five years, Roseville Electric develops an Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The IRP is comprised of an assessment of the future electric needs and a plan to meet those future needs.

We invite you to be a part of the conversation and join us for an upcoming public workshop: 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 29, at the Maidu Community Center.

Visit roseville.ca.us/irp for more information.

Updated schedule for overnight Baseline Road closures

Road work will temporarily close Baseline Road overnight between Fiddyment Road and Watt Avenue from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. daily through July 1.

Roseville has a sticky situation

Stickers on fruit and vegetables serve a purpose – they’re informative and make it easy for grocery stores to organize their produce section. What else do they do? For starters, they have a tendency to find their way into the sewage system, wreaking havoc on wastewater treatment equipment.

Before rinsing your delicious fruits and veggies for a meal, be sure to remove these stickers and place them in the garbage can instead of the sink drain. Your sewer lines and wastewater treatment plant workers will thank you.

STEAM fun, games and activities  

Our first STEAM on the Square was a huge hit with kids and parents so don’t miss our second event this summer! Your child will love learning about science, technology, engineering, art and math while having fun.

Kids (ages 3-12) will have such a good time at our STEAM on the Square event that they won’t realize just how much they are learning, plus they get to take home their creations. So join us on Saturday, July 16, from 10 a.m. to noon at Vernon Street Town Square.
