New information obtained today says that the city and Placer County SPCA are reconsidering the location of the new SPCA Animal Control Facility. The city planning group is evaluating two sites for the shelter: the Westside Drive site (adjacent to O'Brien) and the Westpark Drive site (near the recycling lot). Both are zoned Industrial. As soon as that information is official we will post something here.

On November 30, 2009, Signature Properties submitted an application for the Fiddyment Ranch Specific Plan Amendment 3 Project. The applicant requests approval of a Specific Plan Amendment (SPA), General Plan Amendment (GPA), Rezone (RZ), Tentative Subdivision Map (SUB), and Development Agreement Amendment (DAA) which would allow for the addition of 1,915 residential units and 7.3 acres of commercial land use within the Fiddyment Ranch portion of the West Roseville Specific Plan (WRSP). Of the additional 1,915 units, 586 units are proposed as low density residential (LDR), 609 units are proposed as medium density residential (MDR), and 720 units as high density residential (HDR). The majority of the units will be located within the Phase 2 and 3 portions of the project area, with a portion of the HDR units being proposed within Phase 1 (HDR parcels at the corner of Fiddyment Road and Blue Oaks Boulevard).

PUBLIC NOTICE Roseville High School #6 Notice of Preparation and Public Scoping Meeting Please be informed that the Roseville Joint Union High School District (District) will be the Lead Agency and will prepare an environmental impact report for the project identified above. The District has released the Initial Study and the 30-day public review period for this process is from October 5, 2009 to November 3, 2009. We request your comments on the Initial Study. The District proposes to develop a new high school within a new community currently under development in the western end of the City of Roseville. Known as the West Roseville Specific Plan, this new community covers 3,126 acres with the majority designated as low-density residential and the remainder is a mixture of medium-density or high-density residential, commercial, business professional, light industrial, industrial, open space, park, including sports complex, and public facility, and utility right-of-way. While detailed plans have not been completed, the District intends to develop Roseville High School #6 as a comprehensive public high school to serve a maximum of 2,500 ninth to twelfth grade students on a 52.85-acre site. Once approved, construction of the high school is projected to begin in 2011-2012, with the first classes to be held in 2013-2014. A copy of the Initial Study is attached. Due to the time limits mandated by State law, your response must be sent at the earliest possible date but not later than 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 3, 2009. A complete copy of the Initial Study and Notice of Preparation prepared for the proposed project may be reviewed at the following locations: Roseville Joint Union High School District 1750 Cirby Way Roseville, CA 95661 Roseville Joint Union High School District Facilities Department 2 Tiger Way, Building #2 Roseville, CA 95678 James Roberts Station Library 9300 Prairie Woods Way Roseville, CA 95747 Send Responses to: Christopher Grimes Facilities Department Roseville Joint Union High School District 2 Tiger Way, Building #2 Roseville, CA 95678 Email: cgrimes@rjuhsd.us The full presentation and notice can be downloaded below:

On Thursday, August 6, 2009, Loren Cook, president of the WestPark-Fiddyment Farm Neighborhood Association, introduced Roseville City School Superintendent Richard Pierucci to approximately 55 neighborhood members at Junction Elementary school. Mr. Pierucci then introduced Carrie Vincent, the recently appointed principal, to a round of approval from those members who were already familiar with Ms. Vincent from her work with the Junction school this past year. Mr. Pierucci discussed development practices for new schools, stating that usually the homes in neighborhoods were built first and schools came later. He indicated that the building of Junction and Chilton schools by the WestPark and Fiddyment Farm developers in advance of the completion of homes was a benefit to the district and residents. He outlined the additional three schools to be built, the first one projected to start in 2011, depending on the economy. Mr. Pierucci stated the current lease of Chilton Middle School by St. John’s School is contracted through this school year and would have to be renegotiated beyond that. He stated that the current projected enrollment for middle school in this area, currently reflected as only 68 students, is not enough for the school district to open the school. Therefore, the 6th, 7th and 8th grade students in this area will continue to attend Cooley Middle School for at least another year after this one. One parent indicated she felt the transportation assessment they were charged is unfair because it isn’t the homeowners’ fault that Chilton hasn’t been opened yet and that there should be more than two pick-up spots in the area. Mr. Pierucci said he’d speak with the transportation department about expanding the pick-up spots and the issue of the fees. Some parents expressed concern about what activities might be available to Chilton once it opens since the enrollment might not be high enough to support some of the activities that are available at Cooley, such as dance, band, etc. Mr. Pierucci indicated that they would try to accommodate whatever activities the enrollment supported, but that students are always offered the option to finish out at their old school whenever a new school opens. They may open Chilton with the 6th grade only, then move up each year as enrollment expands. Ms. Vincent answered questions about a new safety patrol and recently painted crosswalks. Students and teachers will be supervising on the school grounds and parent volunteers will be recruited on the non-school sides of the crosswalks. Also, the curbs have been painted red to disallow parking in the school drive; the lane must be kept open as a fire and emergency lane. She stated there will continue to be two afternoon release times for children, but the times will be closer together. Attendance has expanded and the street side classrooms will now be in use, but security measures will continue to monitor the grounds against intruders. Ms. Vincent directed parents with inquiries of registration of pre-school children to contact the City of Roseville which is responsible for pre-schools. Ms. Vincent said letters will issue this Friday to provide enrollment information when their offices reopen on August 10th. She also invited everyone to their ice cream social on Thursday, August 20th, 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., to be followed on August 21st with parent orientation to meet with teachers. Mr. Pierucci said he could not address specific questions related to high schools since he is superintendent for the K-8th grades; questions regarding the high schools should be addressed to the superintendent of the Roseville Joint Union High School District. Mr. Pierucci did indicate that earliest probability for a new high school opening here would probably be 2014. Until then, students from this area would continue to attend Oakmont High School. After several parents indicated their interest in meeting with the superintendent of the high school district, Loren Cook said he would try to set up a similar meeting and get a notice out through the neighborhood association websites.
