What a great week in the Chamber community! From connecting with local professionals and welcoming new members to meaningful community conversations and important advocacy updates, it was another week full of connection, celebration, and engagement across Roseville.

 

We kicked things off Tuesday with our September Luncheon at Randy Peters Catering & Event Center, where 100 local professionals gathered to connect and learn. Craig Perra with Mindful Habit Coaching shared insights on self-leadership, offering plenty of great takeaways for everyone in the room.

 

 

 

On Wednesday, we joined the Latino Leadership Council for its 12th Annual Forum, focused this year on bridging immigration policy and its impact on our communities. It was a great turnout of community leaders, business professionals, and residents for an important conversation centered on connection, education, and understanding. Thank you to the LLC for another impactful event!

 

Thursday brought another reason to celebrate as we gathered to welcome Oaken & Co. with a Ribbon Cutting. We love celebrating our members and supporting their success as they grow in our community.

 

That evening, IGNITE Young Professionals gathered at Waymaker Brewing for a fun evening of networking, conversation, and connecting with fellow young professionals. It was a great opportunity to build new relationships, grow professional circles, and enjoy some local brews along the way.

We are also excited to welcome five new members to the Chamber this week:

• University Conservatory of Ballet, LLC
• TDI
• H.A. Skin Lab
• Law Office of Daniel A. Hunt
• Sports Basement

Please join us in giving each of them a warm welcome to the Chamber community!

 

 

As we mark 25 years since September 11, 2001, we invite our community to pause, reflect, and remember. A display of 3,000 flags will be on view at Vernon Town Square from sunrise to sunset. Each flag represents a life forever changed and serves as a reminder of the strength, courage, and unity that emerged in the days that followed. We invite you to stop by, take a moment of quiet reflection, and remember those whose lives were forever changed.

 

On the advocacy front, Cal/OSHA is considering updates to California’s workplace heat illness prevention standards for both indoor and outdoor workplaces. The proposed changes are being developed under AB 2243 and would update existing requirements in the state’s heat illness regulations. A revised draft was released in August 2026, and interested parties can submit comments through September 21, 2026.

Current California requirements already require employers to take steps to protect workers from heat illness. For outdoor workplaces, this includes providing fresh drinking water, access to shade, cool-down rest periods, employee training, and a written heat illness prevention plan. Additional requirements apply to certain industries when temperatures reach 95°F or higher.

For businesses with indoor or outdoor employees, staying informed about the proposed changes and reviewing current heat illness prevention procedures can help ensure continued compliance as the standards evolve.
