REQUEST ACCEPTANCE OF THE
VOLUNTEER PROGRAM ANNUAL
REPORT
DEPT. HEAD
CITY ATTY.
CITY MGR.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2007-066 accepting the Volunteer Program Annual Report.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
Volunteers for the City of Carlsbad gave 52,697 hours of service to expand and enhance City
services during fiscal year 2005/06. They were active in every Major Service Area with:
• 20,027 hours spent assisting the Recreation Department in a variety of ways including
special events, the Senior Center and the Trails system
• 15,139 hours assisting the Police and Fire Departments with numerous hours both in-
station and in the field by the Senior Volunteer Patrol and
• 14,235 hours assisting the Library system with their on-going services like Homework
Zone and Storytime, as well as the additional work of tagging the entire library
collection.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Independent Sector, a non-profit organization that tracks volunteer contributions, sets a
value on the volunteer hour. That value is estimated to be $21.06/hour for California for fiscal
year 2005/06. Thus, volunteers donated $1,109,798 worth of service to the community.
To calculate the costs of securing volunteer services, the Community Volunteer Coordinator
designed a new tool called the Cost Calculator. This spreadsheet allows staff to plug in
training costs, recognition costs, etc. Staff costs totaled $274,824 for the last fiscal year.
The Return on Investment for the Volunteer Program during FY 2005-06 was approximately
four dollars for every dollar invested.
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).

Carlsbad Volunteer
Fast Facts
The Value of Volunteer
• A total of 1,282 volunteers donated 52,697 hours
for a value of $1,109,798.82. That's over a million
dollars of donated services to the City of Carlsbad.
Volunteer Recruitment
• We recruit 48% of our volunteers through a variety
of Internet resources. Our volunteer opportunities
are listed on
- www. MyVolunteerPage. com/Carlsbad
- www.Californiavolunteers.org
- www.NetworkforGood.org
- www.VolunteerMatch.org
and local college and high school Web sites.
Volunteer Satisfaction
• When surveyed, 92% of our volunteers rated their
volunteer experience as "Good" or "Excellent."
Return on Investment
• For the last fiscal year, the volunteer program had
a 403.8% rate of return on the City's investment.
Highlights
from the Heart
Compassion Served
Home meal deliverer Penny Corbit took the
usual midday meal to one of our homebound
residents. When she realized the need was
greater, she returned with bags of groceries to
stock a nearly empty refrigerator. She continues
to call, give rides to the store and provide
special service to that homebound resident.
Criminals Caught
Dale Dennis, Volunteer of the Year for the Senior
Volunteer Patrol, has a sixth sense about
suspicious vehicles. On three different
occasions, he decided to run the license plates
on vehicles that have turned out to be stolen.
Wall Built
Eagle Scout projects provide an amazing cost
savings for the City of Carlsbad. Bid out in the
normal process, the retaining wall at Hidden
Canyon Park would have cost the City at least
$30,000. Michael Kenton and his fellow Scouts
built it at a cost of only $13,000.
Service Improved
In the libraries, 100 volunteers donated 948
hours of their time to help complete the
daunting task of putting a security tag on every
one of the 330,000 items in the Carlsbad library
collection. The tags will allow patrons to check
out books more quickly.
