ITEM EXPLANATION:
Carlsbad's CityStuff program is an outreach program made up of employee and City volunteers. Each
spring, CityStuff volunteers are assigned to a classroom where they will introduce "their Carlsbad world".
This year there has been an unprecedented response of 15 schools who wish to welcome the program,
with a maximum of 68 classrooms will be participating. This six week long program educates students
about their local government and its processes and procedures. The curriculum is designed to
compliment state standards for third grade civic education. Donations are solicited to offset the City's
costs associated with printing classroom lessons.
The CityStuff program began in 2002 with the hopes of enriching the youth of Carlsbad. Allied
Waste/Palomar Transfer Station is a local contributor that has continuously made strides to improve the
effectiveness and success of CityStuff. This year has also brought in two new sponsorships by
Poseidon Resources Corporation and San Diego Gas & Electric.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Donations of $1,000 from Allied Waste/Palomar Transfer Station, $1,000 by Poseidon Resources
Corporation, and $1,500 provided by San Diego Gas & Electric are to be appropriated to the CityStuff
account. These donations will allow the CityStuff's innovative volunteer program to educate more
children about democracy and their local government.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This activity is not a project and is therefore not subject to State CEQA pursuant to State CEQA
Guidelines Section 15060(c)(2).
EXHIBITS:
1. Resolution No.2007-019 accepting donations from Allied Waste/Palomar
