# November 9, 2026 EDA and City Council Meeting

The Roseville Economic Development Authority (EDA) and City Council met on November 9, 2026. The EDA unanimously authorized a three-year legal-services agreement beginning January 1, 2027, following an RFQ process that received 10 proposals; the selected attorney’s hourly rate is $285 for 2027 and $295 for 2028–2029, with $29,000 budgeted for 2027. The EDA also unanimously approved extending its agreement with the Center for Energy and Environment through 2028 for home energy audits and Energy Squad visits, funded at $12,000 annually from the EDA abatement fund, and adopted its 2027 meeting calendar.

The City Council unanimously authorized conduit bond financing of up to $23.75 million for Standard Communities’ renovation of an affordable senior-housing property. The city will not guarantee repayment and will receive an administrative fee of 1% of the final bond amount; the project includes accessibility and building upgrades, with no permanent tenant displacement planned. The Council also approved consent items including $817,964.88 in payments, replacement tables and chairs for six park buildings, and a professional-services agreement with RSI Building Envelope to prepare plans, specifications, and cost estimates for the skating-oval roof; construction funding and bidding will be considered later. A developer agreement requires the Twin Lakes Technology Center developer to fund an estimated $150,000 trail project. Utility-rate projections were discussed but not adopted, and the maintenance operations center project was reported as out for bids, with a later Council decision expected.
