Dear Friends:

 

Now that the election is over, I want to thank all the people who supported our campaign for the Roseville City Council!

 

With your support, we were successful in securing one of the three seats up for election.

 

I am very excited to be given the chance to serve our community as a member of your City Council.

 

My pledge to all of you is that I will work as hard as I can to be the very best City Council member possible.

 

My top priority will be to listen to your concerns and represent your voice on the City Council.

 

As a small business person, I will do everything I can to make sure small business has a strong presence in City Hall and an experienced representative on the City Council.

 

Working with the other City Council members and staff, I will focus on the issues I emphasized during our campaign – establishing a clear, long-term vision for our community; improving our high quality of life; providing superior public safety services; keeping Roseville financially strong; providing citizens with the best possible customer services; helping maintain top quality schools, parks and libraries; bringing higher education to Roseville; creating an efficient and effective transportation system; preserving our environmental assets; revitalizing the aging parts of our community; aggressively pursuing new high-quality businesses and high-paying jobs; and maintaining our community’s aging infrastructure.

 

That’s a VERY big job!

 

But it’s a job that, with your help and support, I am ready and willing to tackle!

 

Thank you again for your support.

 

If I can be of assistance, please feel free to contact me at 916-783-2958 or john@allardforroseville.com

MEET JOHN ALLARD

As a small business owner and an active member of our community, John looks forward to the opportunity to serve Roseville on the City Council!

In June 2005, John and his wife, Lisa, purchased Molly Maid of Placer County, a house cleaning business servicing south Placer and north Sacramento Counties. Since taking over Molly Maid, they have grown the business by over 660%, creating numerous new jobs and providing a much-needed service to thousands of local residents.

 

John and Lisa bought their first house in Roseville in 1987, and have been extremely active and involved in south Placer County since then.

John served on the Roseville Planning Commission from February 2001 to September 2003. He was appointed to a vacancy on the Roseville City Council in October 2003, and was then elected to four-year terms in November 2004 and November 2008, before leaving office in December 2012.

John’s focus on City Council was creating a safe, healthy and prosperous community, building the best possible local/regional transportation system, streamlining and reducing the costs of government, enhancing community services, promoting economic vitality, preserving environmental assets and revitalizing the older parts of Roseville. 


John served as Regional Vice President for the Hospital Council of Northern and Central California (2000-2005); Vice President of Grassroots and Political Activity for the California Hospital Association (1999-2000); Deputy Director for Public Affairs, Public Education and Legislation for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (1997-1999); and Chief of Staff for Assemblyman and Senator Tim Leslie (1986-1997).
