Correspondence from Donna Campbell , Executive Director B. Program Description - Non-profit Management Services C. Proposed Workshops FY90-91 D. Facility Use Policy RECOMMENDATION Consider Request by Valley Volunteer Center for use of the Regional Meeting Room FINANCIAL STATEMENT VVC has requested waiver of rental fees which are estimated at $3 , 360 for all programs. In addition, the City would incur undetermined minor costs associated with the setup of the room. DESCRIPTION Correspondence has been received from Donna Campbell , Executive Director of the Valley Volunteer Center, requesting use of the Regional Meeting Room for their Non-profit Management Services Workshops (Exhibit A) . Their request is for 20 half days and 4 full days between September of 1990 and June of 1991 . Background The Valley Volunteer Center provides programs and services that enable people to help in the Livermore-Amador Valley Community. Volunteers, individuals and community groups, are recruited and referred to fill the needs of over 130 non-profit human service agencies. Approximately 15% of these agencies are in Dublin, and about 11% of the volunteers recruited are Dublin residents. One of the programs offered by the Valley Volunteer Center is the Non- Profit Management Services Program (Exhibit B) . This program is a primary provider of high-quality, low-cost workshops for non-profit organizations. Workshops cover topics such as personnel management, public relations, volunteer recruitment and management, financial management, leadership skills and boardsmanship. The proposed workshops for FY90-91 are attached in Exhibit C. The fee for a 3-hour workshop is $35 which covers only 35% of the revenue needed to sustain this program. The remainder of their funding is derived from fundraisers and in-kind donations from the community. In the past the workshops were held in the conference room of Crum & Forster, however this room is no longer available. Consequently, the Valley Volunteer Center is looking for a regular, dependable, donated, professional site with easy access from all directions. VVC indicated that their past attendance averaged 18 persons per session. Thus the request to utilize the Regional Meeting Room. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM NO. COPIES TO: Donna Campbell , VCC AGENDA STATEMENT - Request from Valley Volunteer Center August 27 , 1990 Page Two Civic Center Facility Use Policy In December of 1989 , the City Council adopted a Facility Use Policy for the Civic Center (Exhibit D) . The use policy establishes rules, regulations, procedures and fees governing the use of the Center. In reviewing the section on Classification of Users, it appears that the Valley Volunteer Center could be classified as a Public Agency described as "agencies serving the City of Dublin" . Groups within this classification may reserve the facility for weekday use (Monday-Friday, 8 :OOam-5:OOpm) no sooner than three months prior to the requested date of use. For an event where an admission fee is charged, the policy states that an hourly rental rate of $30 would be assessed to the user. Analysis of Request Based on the request for use from the Valley Volunteer Center, the rental rates assessed for their workshops would be as follows: Half-Day Workshop - 4hrs @ $30/hr = $120 for 20 Workshops = $2 , 400 Full-Day Workshop - 8hrs @ $30/hr = $240 for 4 Workshps = $ 960 TOTALFEES. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ._ $3,360 These fees are attributable to the policy stating a rental charge on events which have an admission fee. The Regional Meeting Room was intended to serve as meeting space for City meetings, as well as for meetings hosted by other public agencies and community groups . The Facility Use Policy was designed to allow the City maximum flexibility in scheduling both the Regional Meeting Room and Council Chambers for City sponsored events and meetings. Thus a time limit was established for acceptance of advance reservations for outside users. Although the Valley Volunteer Center has requested use on 24 separate occasions , they have indicated that the scheduling of these workshops can be fairly flexible, so as to not interfere with City use. Typically the workshops are scheduled on a quarterly basis for Fall , Winter and Spring. Actual workshop dates are selected approximately six weeks to two months prior to the start of the quarter. The VVC staff has explained that the City of Pleasanton currently provides office space to the Valley Volunteer Center for $1 . 00 annually and the City of Livermore donates space at the Multi-Service Center for a satellite office. VVC statistics don't reflect a need for a field office in Dublin at this time. However, utilization of the Regional Meeting Room for the Non-profit Management Services Workshops would provide the Valley Volunteer Center with a year round presence in Dublin. In return, the City would become a major donor for the Valley Volunteer Center and be listed as such on the major donor list. It is the recommendation of staff that the City Council consider the request by the Valley Volunteer Center for use of the Regional Meeting Room. Should the Council be in favor of granting the request by VVC, then it will be necessary to waive the section of the Facility Use Policy pertaining to priority of users as well as the fee schedule.

We are proud of the services we have been able to Charles DePaoli provide to the community and to 130 nonprofit organizations , AmritDuneja schools and government offices throughout the tri-valley. In fact Sue Gallinger our management workshops for non-profit organizations are known Maxine Jennings throughout the east bay for high quality at an affordable cost. David Martin Bonnie Moss We are currently experiencing a major problem in this program and Pat Smith are requesting your help. We would like to propose a special Jane Staehle arrangement for use of your Regional Meeting Room or Council Mike Thompson Chambers for our year round series of workshops. We are asking Donna J.Campbell for 20 half days and 4 full days between now and June 1991. Executive Director In the past we were fortunate to have frequent use of Crum & Advisory Council Forster's conference room. Since their departure, staff have Lilly Ault spent many hours searching for suitable space. We need a regular, Elva Cooper dependable, donated, professional site with easy acccess from all Kay Daniels directions. If we have to start paying for sites, we will have to Michal Dittrich raise our fees. Art Dunkley Bruce Gach,M.D. As you know, the V.V.C. provides services to about 130 tri-valley Judge William Gale agencies. About 15% of those agencies are in Dublin, and about Mike Harris 11% of the volunteers we recruit come from Dublin. We're Tim Hunt enclosing a list of Dublin agencies who regularly receive our Bill Laube services. Barbara Mertes Rev.William Nebo The City of Pleasanton currently provides our main office for $1 John Noonan annually and the City of Livermore is donating space for our field Betty Nostrand office. While the statistics don't reflect a need for a field Gerald Richards office in Dublin at this time, providing all of our workshops there would give us a year round presence. While the cost to you in dollars would be small, the saving to us in staff time alone would be major. The City would be listed on our major donor list and could be listed on all our materials as our training site. Also enclosed is correspondence from my training staff to your Recreation Dept. staff.

Sincerely, Christine Lafferty ?rogram Director Nonprofit Management Services VW alley Volunteer Center NONPROFIT HANAGEMENT SERVICES The Valley Volunteer Center's Nonprofit Management Services program has been successfully serving the community for 8 years. This program is a primary provider of high—quality, low—cost workshops for nonprofit organizations in the Tri—Valley and East Bay areas. During a fiscal year we include workshops that cover personnel management, volunteer recruitment and management , public relations and marketing, financial management, and boardsmanship. A needs assessment form is requested from each workshop participant so that we can provide training based on the current needs of local agencies. Our trainers come from throughout the Northern California area and many are nationally recognized for their particular expertise. Additionally this program offers a library of video training tapes for use by. staff , volunteers , and Boards of Directors of the agencies we serve. These tapes can be used for retreat , in—house training, and workshops as another cost effective way to receive valuable information, on the best management techniques and strategies for nonprofits. An audio—visual equipment library is also available through this program. With the. cooperation of local businesses , we have recently initiated a board bank to further assist nonprofit organizations. We are recruiting board candidates from the corporate sector and providing training for them in the skills needed to be effective on a nonprofit board of directors. Training is also provided for participating agencies on developing an active and involved board. At the conclusion of both trainings, we are then able to match prospective board members with an agency that meets their needs and interest. To keep fees for these programs affordable for all nonprofit groups , our Board does invest some fundraising income. We need to obtain underwriting for the remainder of the operating expenses for this program.
