Hey, everybody. It's Monday in Roseville and I'm back in your inbox with everything that's fit to print about what's happening in town, including news on:

• The Rocklin City Council has approved the residential development at University Ave. and Sunset Blvd. right next to William Jessup University. A 10 acre commercial development will accompany the residential space.
• Get a pink Roseville PD shoulder patch and be the envy of your friends, while you support breast cancer awareness.
• Scott Alvord will be at Raley's O-N-E tonight! Head on over and chat with the City Council candidate.

But first, today's weather:

Sunny and seasonably warm. High: 86 Low: 56.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Roseville who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Roseville Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top stories today in Roseville:

1. Saturday's show with Sammy Hagar was the very last one for the outdoor stage at Thunder Valley. Starting next year, performances will be inside at their new venue named, aptly, The Venue. It will be able to hold concerts year-round. Thunder Valley has announced that the season at the new venue will off with the Eagles on February 17, followed by Bruno Mars and Santana. Per Roseville Today "Once completed, The Venue will have 4,500 seats and will host musical acts, comedic performances, and sporting events all year long. It also will provide large event space for conferences and banquets." (Roseville Today)
2. Local boy makes good! Granite Bay's very own Cole Moore won the Napa Auto Parts 150 at the All American Speedway in Roseville on Saturday night. It was the 25-year-old's first ARCA Menards Series West win, and it was in front of an appreciative hometown crowd. Congrats, Cole! (Gold Country Media)
3. At their September 27 meeting, the Rocklin City Council approved the residential development at University Ave. and Sunset Blvd. The proposal consists of 181 single story apartment homes, 19 of which will be designated for low income housing, on twenty acres of land. Ten acres of the parcel will be held for commercial development. (roseville.ca.us)
4. Placer County’s Free Tax Prep program (also known as VITA) is currently seeking volunteers for the 2023 tax season. Program volunteers will help lower income residents file taxes and maximize refunds. No prior experience is needed to be a volunteer. Training will be provided. “At a time when many working families are grappling with the impacts of inflation, this program is a needed boost to them and to our local economy,” said Human Services Director Greg Geisler. “For volunteers, it is also valuable experience with customer service and financials.” To learn more and register for upcoming virtual orientation sessions on Oct. 13 or 15, visit yourlocalunitedway.org/freetaxprep-volunteer.

To save you some time, we at Patch have compiled a fresh batch of five new listings nearby. Find the five latest homes to hit the housing market in the Roseville area, such as a listing with 3 beds and 3 baths for $639,990, and another with 4 beds and 4 baths for $699,990, at this link.

From my notebook:

• The Pink Patch Project is a nationwide awareness campaign with hundreds of law enforcement agencies participating. Agencies turn their shoulder patches pink in support of breast cancer research and awareness. This is the fifth year the Roseville Police Department has participated, and the second year that we've allowed the public to purchase one of the patches. During the month of October, any member of the public can get a patch for a $15 (each) donation. Go to https://givebutter.com/Mr8Wn3 to get your pink patch. (City of Roseville, California Police Department via Facebook)
• Sign up for Pumpkin Painting at the Carnegie Museum on Saturday, October 8 from 11am-1pm! There will be a history-themed Storytime led by the Latino Leadership Council and pumpkin painting available for all ages. (Roseville Public Library via Facebook)
• The Kings of Queen- a tribute to Queen, will be at the Goldfield Trading Post on Vernon Street on October 7! VIP seating is available.

Now you're in the loop and ready to start this Monday. See you all tomorrow morning for another update!
