City Council Work Session Meeting <br /> Monday, March 19, 2018 <br /> Page 12 <br /> Councilmember Etten noted that both page 6 and 17 mention different sources of <br /> identified additional need for affordable housing. <br /> Mayor Roe clarified the Met Council has identified the need of 142 additional <br /> units, but the Council is suggesting that need can be partially met through the <br /> turnover of existing single-family housing. <br /> Chapter 6 <br /> Councilmember Etten asked for clarification on the graphic on page 3 that num- <br /> bers employees in Roseville. <br /> Councilmember Etten asked about the graph for workers and business mixed. <br /> Mr. Lloyd stated that the information on the graph might have gotten lost in the <br /> transition between the two pages. <br /> Mayor Roe recalled it had been decided to have the graphic show all of these cat- <br /> egories or focus more on the big/important ones. The Grow Roseville website <br /> should say the same thing. <br /> Ms. Perdu stated what is more appropriate is to remove some of the smaller list- <br /> ings, as it would be impossible to create an infographic that included all of the <br /> sectors. <br /> Councilmember Laliberte pointed out the woeful inadequacies in the paragraph on <br /> page 2, noting she has been thinking of the workforce development opportunity <br /> presented to the Council. Ramsey County Workforce Solutions and the school <br /> districts are mentioned. There is one college within the borders and 10 colleges <br /> nearby, and the City of Roseville should be identifying ways to do more in the <br /> way of workforce development. <br /> Mayor Roe noted the public safety folks are making connections with community <br /> colleges. <br /> Councilmember McGehee commented on the trend that the over-50 age group is <br /> being laid off and not getting interviews. Ageism is becoming more of a focus in <br /> Roseville demographic. <br /> Mayor Roe noted there is always a transition where someone has been in a partic- <br /> ular point in their career and they need to transition. Career transition assistance <br /> might also be an appropriate focus. <br /> Councilmember Willmus agreed with Councilmember Laliberte's comments <br /> about looking at the assets currently in Roseville.
