Since its inception, the event has been held at the Fairview Community <br />Center and is open to the public free of charge. The Home and Garden Fair was <br />"rebranded" in 2009 as the Roseville "Living Smarter" Home and Garden Fair and <br />focused on 3 core areas: Energy and Environmental Sustainability, Home Improvement, <br />and Gardening for Healthy Living. <br />The RHRA has, at various times, discussed whether or not to continue the Living Smarter <br />Home and Garden Fair. To facilitate the continuation of this discussion, staff is providing <br />feedback from last year's Fair, as well as information about the costs associated with the <br />Fair as it is currently run (see Attachments A, B, and C).
