Roseville HOA Guide
West Roseville HOA Guide: WestPark and Fiddyment
West Roseville is the part of the city west of Fiddyment Road, built under the West Roseville Specific Plan that the city adopted in 2004. It covers about 3,162 acres in two main areas, WestPark and Fiddyment, and the city’s current plan tables allow more than 10,000 homes there.
Almost everything about how these neighborhoods are maintained was decided in that plan. This guide explains who looks after what, so a board knows which costs belong to the HOA and which the city already charges for.
Facts on this page were checked against City of Roseville documents on October 9, 2026. For citywide rules on short-term rentals, ADUs, parking, water use and oak trees, see the Roseville HOA Guide. Sources are listed at the bottom of the page.
Who maintains what in West Roseville
This is the question new board members here ask first, because three different parties work in the same neighborhood.
The services districts are Westpark Community Facilities District No. 2 and Fiddyment Ranch Community Facilities District No. 2. Each is a special tax on the property tax bill. When they were formed for the 2004-05 tax year, the maximum was $323 a year for a single-family home in WestPark and $364 in Fiddyment, and each can rise by up to 4% a year. The city’s documents do not list walls or street lights among the services these districts fund, so check your own maps and CC&Rs before assuming who repairs a wall.
The practical lesson for a board: before you budget for a landscaped strip, a paseo or a drainage basin, confirm who owns the parcel. That avoids paying a contractor to maintain land the district already covers.
What to do about it: What Are HOA Assets? explains how to build a list of what your association owns, and Understanding HOA Reserve Studies shows how that list drives the reserve plan.
Is the Mello-Roos tax the same as HOA dues?
No. Owners in West Roseville often pay both, plus bond districts that paid for the original roads and utilities. The services district tax goes to the city for public landscaping, parks and open space. HOA dues go to your association for what it owns. When an owner asks why they pay twice for landscaping, the answer is that the two charges cover different land.
Communities and age-restricted neighborhoods
The specific plan sets aside about 147 acres and 704 homes in WestPark for residents 55 and older. No public source lists every association in WestPark and Fiddyment, so we do not attempt a full list here.
West Roseville also has neighborhood associations, including WestPark and Fiddyment Farm. These are volunteer civic groups. The WestPark group says plainly that it is not an HOA and charges no dues. They are useful allies for a board on city issues such as traffic and parks, but they have no authority over your CC&Rs.
Open space preserves next to your community
About 20% of the plan area is permanent open space, roughly 700 acres. The preserves protect wetlands and vernal pools under federal permits and deed restrictions, and they are managed under the city’s Open Space Preserve management plan, by the city or a preserve manager. The city’s grazing plan calls for cattle grazing on parts of the preserve under an agreement with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The named creeks are Pleasant Grove Creek, Curry Creek, Kaseberg Creek and Coyote Creek, and floodplains sit largely inside the open space corridors.
For a board, that means the land behind your back fences is probably not yours to mow, plant or clear. If owners complain about tall grass or cattle, ask the city’s open space staff who manages that parcel before the association sends a crew.

City design standards that sit beside your CC&Rs
The specific plan has its own design guidelines, and where they are stricter than citywide rules, the plan governs. A few that affect architectural decisions:
If an owner asks to replace an open-view fence along the preserve with solid wood, the answer may be no under the city’s plan even if your own guidelines are silent. Check with Roseville Planning at (916) 774-5276.

Sorting out who does what?
Districts, the city and the association all work in the same neighborhood, and newer boards often inherit unclear maps.

Questions West Roseville board members ask
Who maintains the paseo behind our homes?
The specific plan says paseos will be owned and maintained by the city. The services district reports list paseo maintenance among the costs the district tax pays for.
Is the WestPark Neighborhood Association our HOA?
No. It is a volunteer civic group with no dues and no authority over CC&Rs.
Can our HOA mow the preserve behind our fence line?
Not on your own. Preserves are managed under a city plan and federal permits by the city or a designated preserve manager, so ask Roseville Planning who manages the parcel first.
Do city rules on rentals, parking and watering apply here?
Yes. They are the same across Roseville and are covered in the Roseville HOA Guide.
