Fire protection . - services were rated very positively in all four regions. The Southeast Region, though, had slightly more - individuals offering only fair or poor evaluations of the fire protection service, as indicated in Table 9. Only 7.6% of the respondents in the Southeast Region said the fire protection service was fair or poor, but this was higher than in the other regions. This regional effect may be related to the Harmony Grc fire in October of 1996 which affected the Southeast Region. Programs and Facilities The programs and facilities provided by the City of Carisbad was also of interest. Respondents were asked to rate the importance of various programs and facilities using a scale of zero to ten. where zero means nor or all mporranr and ten means uen' intporranr. Table IO contains the at'erage importance ratings for c~p programs and facilities. with numbers closer to ten indicating greater imponance. As can be seen In the table, preserved open-space land has the highest imponance rating (8.31). Trails and paths ('.86). as well as picnic areas (7.33) and children's play equlpment (7.25) were also regarded as quire ImpORant. Of least impoitance was tennis courts - the average importance rating was 5.09 on the zero-to-ren scale. Indoor meeting rooms (5.44). pubilc golf courses (5.62). and basketball courts (5.65) were also rated relatively low in imponance. 17 January 16,2001 Version: City of Carlsbad, 2000 - SBRJ Space Land (Accarible to the Publac) Impomcc of Nature Tnils, Joggmg and W&mg Pathr lmpanrncc of Plcnic ARPS Impowlce of Children’s Play Equlpmenr lmponance of Ahf and CulnJral Prognms imponancc of Playtng Fields lmponancc of Bike Paths lmpomce of Swlmmmg Pools Impomce of Community Gardens lmponance of Basketball Couns lmpomcc of Publ~c Golf Courses lrnponancc of Indoor b\.leetrn_r Rooms lrnponancc of iennts Couns \ all2 4 I IISW ISC) 989 8.4 1 989 7.86 990 7.33 986 7.25 999 7.16 989 7.12 992 6.58 ’ 990 6.47 984 6.06 98 I 5.65 993 5.62 978 544 980 5.09 928 2.3 1 2.35 229 2.79 2.44 2.71 2.92 2.84 2.68 2.92 3.44 2.66 2.9 I OPROCS i .

On average, Carlsbad residents visited a Carlsbad library 15.86 times in the past year. The amount of overall library use did not vary by region.
