FRIENDS OF ROSEVILLE

FORE

Why Friends of Roseville (FORE) was formed.

"Over the past couple of years, many Roseville citizens realized there is a bias against hearing legitimate concerns and the proper handling of such by our local officials. It became obvious, as people appeared before the city council and other city bodies to lobby for residents; rights on electric rates, that there were many other issues crying out to be heard from the residents; point of view.  But it was the 7% increase in residential electric rates in July 1997 (that raises to 21% in the next 2 years) that galvanized a group of concerned Roseville citizens to organize FORE to speak for the citizens."
