Final draft City Council district map selected by Independent Redistricting Commission

The Roseville Independent Redistricting Commission selected a modified version of Draft Map B as the final draft City Council district map at its January 24, 2022 public meeting. The final draft map, referred to as Draft Map B-1, will be available for public review and comment for 30 days.

The Commission will hold five additional public hearings during the 30-day review period, one in each of the existing City Council districts, to take public comment about Draft Map B-1. The schedule of these public hearings is being developed and will be released when complete.

Following the 30-day public review period, the Commission will then hold a public meeting to formally consider the adoption of Draft Map B-1 as the final map that defines City Council district boundaries for the next 10 years.

New statewide drought emergency water conservation regulations in place

California recently approved new emergency water conservation measures to stretch and manage water supplies during continued drought conditions.

Although California received record rainfall and snowfall to close 2021, we still only have 58% of the precipitation needed for the year. Also, not all reservoirs have rebounded and are still lower than needed as we approach the summer months.

As a result, these mandates are effective mid-January for one year unless extended by the State. 

Read more about the emergency measures.

Water quality remains a top priority

Thousands of tests are run throughout the water treatment and distribution process to ensure your drinking water is safe, clean, and sustainable when it reaches the tap. 

According to annual reports, Roseville continues to meet or exceed State and Federal water quality standards.
