Photo simulation
Currently, Roseville operates two 180-foot radio communications towers. One is in west Roseville near the Roseville Energy Park and the second is in central Roseville at the Police Department building on Junction Boulevard. The planned tower in east Roseville will be similar in style and size to these two towers.
The current radio facility serving east Roseville is located within a leased office building on Douglas Boulevard and does not meet the City's growing needs due to site limitations and costs. The Strauch Drive site will replace the Douglas facility.
Environmental clearance was done in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. Construction will occur on the interior of the parcel and vegetation will be preserved to the greatest extent possible.
The new radio tower will operate in compliance with federal and state regulations.
Funding for this project is $1.5 million dollars and provided by designated capital improvement project funding.
