DATE: 08/16/04 COMMUNITY ACTIVITY STAFF: BEVERLY GRANT REVIEW COMMITTEE ACTION Appoint Parks and Recreation Commissioner to the Community Activity Grant Review Com m ittee. Each year, the City solicits individuals or community organizations to apply for grant funding from the City’s Community Activity Funding Source. Initially, the funds were established by Council as a means of funding activity requests that benefit, for the most part, the citizens of Carlsbad. Several years ago, Council took $1,000,000 and established an endowment of sorts. Each year that $1,000,000 generates interest income, which is then used to fund many activities that benefit the citizens of Carlsbad and may also benefit others outside the community. The Finance Department is requesting that one member from the Senior Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission and Library Board serve on a committee that reviews each request for funding. Ultimately the grant recipients are recommended to City Council for award of grant funding for community activities. Staff is recommending that a commissioner be appointed to serve in this capacity. The commitment to serve should consider approximately three-week day afternoons requiring about three hours each afternoon. The committee member should also consider a requirement of ample time to review a multitude of community activity grant requests. Last year, the review process was spread over a three-week period. Once a Commissioner is selected, the name will be submitted to the finance department and the staff person that facilitates this program. The Commissioner will then be informed of the meeting times and dates. EXHIBITS: 1.

An important part of the process is the establishment of the Citizen Review Committee, which is to consist of a representative from each quadrant of the City, one member of the Senior Commission, one member from the Library Board and one member from the Parks and Recreation Commission. Attached is a list of the members that served last year. Please forward to me the names of the citizens (one for each quadrant) that you would like to have serve on the committee. I would like to have the recommendations by September 15" so that the committee can begin its work for the 2004-05 funding recommendation. We will have the Library Director and the Recreation Director seek volunteers for this panel from the appropriate Boards and Commissions. It is anticipated that the $50,000 that Council appropriated for the 2004-05 grants program will be distributed in December 2004 as shown on the following "tentative schedule": Council to appoint review committee Grant applications due to Finance Department Committee to review applications Recommendations on funding made to Council September October 1 October/Novem ber December Please feel free to call me at extension 2428, if you have any questions.
