TITLE: CARLSBAD LIONS CLUB BEACH CLEAN-UP (ACTION) RECOMMENDED ACTION: Acknowledge and support the Carlsbad Lions Club's request to provide for beach clean-up on Carlsbad beaches. Direct staff to provide trash bags for beach clean-up. ITEM EXPLANATION: The Carlsbad Lions Club has contacted staff member Jill Prichard, Recreation Specialist for Special Events, for assistance in fulfilling their request. Jill Prichard has worked with the Club previously in providing assistance during "I Love a Clean Carlsbad" annual beach clean-up event. The club has taken an interest in providing this service on a tri-annual basis and is requesting that the Parks and Recreation Department provide needed trash bags for the disposal of refuse. FISCAL IMPACT: No staff time other than volunteer time is being requested. The cost of the trash bags is minimal. EXHIBITS: 1. Memo from Recreation Specialist, January 9, 1992 13 January 9, 1992 TO: SENIOR MANAGEMENT ANALYST FROM: Recreation Specialist CARLSBAD LION'S CLUB BEACH CLEAN-UP The Carlsbad Lion's Club is interested in doing a beach clean-up for Carlsbad Beaches. They will provide the needed volunteers for each clean-up and are asking the City to support this event by providing the needed trash bags. They are planning their first clean-up for January 25th and will continue to coordinate with the department for beach clean-up every three months. They will conclude the yearly clean-up by participating in our own "I Love a Clean Carlsbad" beach clean-up event in September. I feel we should support this group for their community efforts and recognize them at our January 20th commission meeting. I am requesting approval from the commission and possible a presentation of appreciation from the commission to the Lion's Club during the meeting. I believe the commission would want to be aware of such services provided by our local civic organizations. Please call me and let me know if this request if possible @ 2835.
