Overalls Weekly – 03/21/2019

THEY STOLE OUR BANNER!

Last Saturday night the Jackson Claim Jumpers stole our banner!  We need to get it back.  We have a great opportunity to retrieve our banner Sunday, March 24^th at the Amador Senior Center Hall, 229 New York Ranch Road in Jackson.  Pre-rounds begin 1:30 pm followed by square dancing/rounds from 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm.

Lets Go Get It Back!

UPCOMING PARKING LOT ISSUE AT ROYER PARK

The contractor will begin building the retaining walls near the parking lot. This involves moving a lot of materials onto the site. We have worked with the contractor to minimize the impact to the parking lot by storing some materials elsewhere (at additional cost to the project), but it will still result in reducing the number of available spaces in the lot to about 15 spaces. This will begin March 4 and continue through April 26.

Please direct any questions to Mike Dour, City of Roseville, mdour@roseville.ca.us.
