Summary of Proceedings

Roseville City Council Meeting – June 23, 2026

The Roseville City Council met on June 23, 2026 to address consent agenda items, new business including budget amendments, property donation, vehicle purchases, and a block party request, as well as public comments on noise complaints and tree removal. The meeting adjourned with council member remarks and a reminder of the next meeting on July 14.

Consent Calendar

  • Approved the consent agenda unanimously (Councilman Matisha motion, Mayor Pro Tem Haw support). Councilwoman McCartney was excused; Councilman Knox arrived late and was later excused.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • Randall Roman (16616 Roberts St.) and Mary McElhaney (16625 Roberts St.) complained about a neighbor creating noise disturbances late at night, including loud music and arguments, which have disrupted sleep and caused stress. Roman stated he has video evidence and has called police multiple times. Mayor Taylor noted that if no citation was issued, residents can provide recordings to the city attorney’s office for review and possible charges. The city manager will follow up with the police department.
  • Doris Collins (1617 Zero Lois Drive) requested timeline for removal of two large trees on her property that are causing a squirrel infestation. Rob DeBrown (DPS Director) confirmed the trees are scheduled for removal this summer before winter, but no exact date could be given due to staffing and priority adjustments.

Discussion Items

  • Budget Amendments (Fiscal Year 2025-2026): John Walters, City Controller, presented the final budget amendment for the fiscal year ending June 2026. Key adjustments included $650,000 in additional revenue ($462,000 from local community stability authority and $217,000 in marijuana excise tax) applied to cover $550,000 in police/fire overtime and $150,000 in healthcare increases. The general fund surplus remains budgeted at $80,000 but is expected to be higher. Other amended funds: CDBG (ADA compliance, bathroom remodel), capital projects (EV charging stations at city hall, downtown, and rec center for $200,000), water fund (adjustments for revenue and expenses), and street funds (major and local) which required adding $3.5 million due to starting FY27 projects in FY26. Rob DeBrown explained that the street fund overrun was a timing issue; he has initiated an investigation and is considering disciplinary action for the engineering inspector. The city is saving money by doing street work under a 2017 contract. Council members questioned and confirmed that the road work did not tap general funds but used Act 51 money. The resolution was approved unanimously.
  • Real Estate Transfer and Donation Agreement: Council approved the donation of surplus property from Roseville Utica LLC to the city, with a motion by Councilman Matisha and support by Mayor Pro Tem Haw. Unanimous.
  • Vehicle Purchase: Council approved the purchase from Long and Hammer Ford (state bid) of three Ford trucks (F-150 super cab, F-150 regular cab, F-250 regular cab) for the water department, replacing fleet vehicles. Motion by Councilman Matisha, support by Mayor Pro Tem Haw. Unanimous.
  • Block Party Request: Approved a block party on Homer Street between Pinehurst and Utica on June 28, 2026 from 3-7 p.m. with stipulations for emergency access, fire hydrant clearance, and barricades. Unanimous.
  • Appointment: Maurice Edwards reappointed to the Parks and Recreation Board. Unanimous.

Key Outcomes

  • Approved fiscal year 2025-2026 budget amendments as presented (unanimous).
  • Approved real estate transfer and donation agreement (unanimous).
  • Approved purchase of three Ford vehicles (unanimous).
  • Approved block party request with stipulations (unanimous).
  • Reappointed Maurice Edwards to Parks and Recreation Board (unanimous).
  • Excused Councilwoman McCartney and later excused Councilman Knox for absence.
  • Directed city manager to follow up with police on noise complaints and to review evidence from residents.
  • DPS Director assured removal of trees on Lois Drive before the end of summer.

City Manager’s Report

  • Reminded council and public that the next meeting is July 14, 2026 due to an extra Tuesday in the month.
