WHAT CASSIE STANDS FOR
Decisions that define Roseville for a generation
Roads are being rebuilt. A civic campus being reimagined. A city that people want to move to and can afford to stay in. Local government works best when it's responsive to the people it serves. These are Cassie's commitments to Roseville.
Housing options for every resident
Roseville is growing, and that's a good thing, but growth has to work for everyone. Housing costs are rising faster than many families can keep up with. Renters are feeling it. First-time buyers are feeling it. Seniors on fixed incomes who've lived here for decades are feeling it.
Roseville is making strides to creatively address housing issues, in conjunction with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, by working to align zoning with options for non-traditional dwellings such as courtyard cottages and Accessory Dwelling Units, or ADUs. This is amazing! Reforms like this are vital to giving homeowners more flexibility to add housing on their existing lots, secure multi-family or generational housing, and ensure tenant protections that keep long-term residents from being priced out. Every new development proposal should answer the question: does this serve the full range of people who call Roseville home?
Housing isn't an abstract policy question. It's the foundation everything else is built on. If people can't afford to stay here, the community we're building doesn't hold together.
Cassie will:
Support continued ADU ordinance and zoning reforms that make housing both more flexible and attainable
Advocate for tenant protections that prevent displacement
Ensure new development reflects the needs of all residents
Push for housing options that serve seniors, working families, and first-time buyers
Smart, community-centered development
Roseville's 2040 Comprehensive Plan guides growth, redevelopment, and the overall improvement of the city, covering everything from housing and economic development to transportation and environmental protection. That plan reflects what residents said they wanted. Cassie will work to make sure the council actually delivers on it.
The Rosedale corridor is the most visible test of that commitment right now. What gets built there, and who it serves, will shape the heart of this city for a generation. Cassie believes that kind of generational decision requires more than a rubber stamp. It requires genuine community input before approvals are made, not after, and a council member who will hold the line on what residents actually asked for.
That includes making sure Roseville remains a place where small businesses can start, grow, and stay. The city already has tools that work: short-term specialty leases, microloan programs, and free business development resources through REDA. Cassie will push to expand on that foundation, advocating for development that creates shared and cooperative commercial spaces where local entrepreneurs and makers can launch without being priced out before they've had a chance to prove themselves.
Roseville is essentially fully developed. The only appreciable way to grow the tax base is through redevelopment. That means every major development decision carries real weight. Cassie will make sure those decisions are made with the community, not around it.
Cassie will:
Ensure Rosedale redevelopment reflects the needs of existing residents and businesses
Encourage and support meaningful community input before major development approvals
Advocate for shared and cooperative commercial spaces that lower barriers for small businesses
Keep developers accountable to the commitments made during the approval process
Evaluate new development proposals against Roseville's 2040 sustainability goals and Climate Equity Action Plan commitments
Make sure growth serves Roseville's 2040 goals, not just the bottom line of the development community
A connected & accessible Roseville
Getting around Roseville shouldn't depend on whether you own a car. But right now, it often does. Sidewalk coverage is inconsistent across the city. Transit connections have gaps. Pedestrian infrastructure in many neighborhoods doesn't meet the needs of seniors, kids, or people with disabilities.
Roseville has already done significant work here. The city owns and maintains approximately 91 miles of pathways, trails, sidewalks, and off-road paths, and projects like the Twin Lakes Trail have been extending that network year by year. But the vision has always been bigger than individual segments: a connected system linking every neighborhood to parks, transit, schools, and one another. Cassie will make sure the city keeps moving toward that vision rather than stalling.
This isn't just a convenience issue; it's an equity issue. When a senior can't safely walk to the bus stop, when a kid can't bike to school, when a resident without a car can't get to work reliably, that's a city that isn't fully working for everyone. Reducing car trips is also one of the most impactful things a city can do for its climate goals, which means transit investment and walkable infrastructure aren't just quality-of-life issues. There are sustainability issues, too.
Cassie will:
Prioritize sidewalk completion in neighborhoods with the most critical gaps
Advocate for completing Roseville's trail network so every neighborhood is connected
Push for better transit connections and pedestrian infrastructure citywide
Ensure infrastructure projects center accessibility for seniors and people with disabilities
Advocate for dedicated bike infrastructure that makes cycling a safe and viable option for Roseville residents
Support safe routes to schools, parks, and transit for kids and families
Recognize transit and pedestrian infrastructure as part of Roseville's broader climate and sustainability commitments
Thriving families & vibrant neighborhoods
Strong neighborhoods are built by people who show up; for park cleanups, for school events, for neighborhood meetings, for each other. Cassie has been that person her whole life, and she knows that the city government's job is to make it easier, not harder.
That means investing in the parks, playgrounds, and green spaces that give families and kids real places to connect. It means protecting Roseville's natural habitats and beauty as the city continues to grow. It means supporting programs that serve Roseville residents across every stage of life, from youth programming to senior activities at the Oval. It means making sure public spaces feel welcoming, well-maintained, and worth showing up for.
It also means taking seriously the work Roseville has already started on climate and sustainability. In 2026, the city presented a draft Climate Equity Action Plan, a ten-year roadmap for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, building climate resilience, and centering equity in how that work gets done. This plan didn't come from nowhere. It came from residents, city staff, and years of community input. Cassie believes the next council has a responsibility to carry it forward, supporting sustainable neighborhood programs and home energy efficiency resources for residents, expanding the tree canopy in priority areas, and making sure Roseville's growth doesn't come at the expense of its environmental commitments.
And it means making sure our public safety infrastructure keeps pace with a growing community. Roseville firefighters have seen a 50% increase in emergency calls since 2018. The FEMA grant that helped fund six additional firefighters has ended, and the 2026 budget added 15 new firefighters and 7 new officers, funded in part by federal grants that will expire. The council will need to make a real commitment to sustaining that staffing. Cassie believes that's not a budget line to cut; it's a promise to keep.
Cassie will:
Invest in parks, playgrounds, and green spaces across all neighborhoods
Protect Roseville's natural habitats as the city continues to grow
Support programming that serves residents of all ages
Ensure public spaces are well-maintained and welcoming for every resident
Champion the Climate Equity Action Plan as an active council priority
Advocate for sustained fire department staffing that matches growing demand
Roseville, Let's Talk.
Cassie knows she doesn't have all the answers, and she doesn't want to. If you're a Roseville resident with something to say about the direction of this city, she wants to hear it. At the grocery store, at community events, at your front door, or right here.
