Welcome to the Summer issue of the Parks, Recreation and Human Services Guide and Carson Report flip-book! On this side of the publication, you will find information on various leisure time activities, classes, excursions and upcoming events for every member of the family. On its flip side, you will find the latest news about Carson and up-to-date information on current events in our community as we put the spotlight on City projects and a variety of important local issues. We hope that you will find this flip-book -- and all its future issues -- useful in planning activities for the entire family, as well as getting informed on what’s going on in our community.

Over the last five years, City staff has attempted to cushion Carson residents from cuts from programs and fee increases for its services. However, the abolishment of Redevelopment Agencies by the Governor and State legislature in February 2012 has had a devastating impact to revenues to the City’s General Fund which finances many of the quality of life services to Carson residents. With that stated, the City Council will be making some difficult decisions regarding program cuts, staff layoffs, and increasing fees for services. So as I write this message, staff is in the final development of recommendations to the City Council in order to balance the City’s structural deficit. Rest assured, the City Council and City staff will make all efforts to provide a diverse number of quality programs and services at low or no cost. With this challenge, I know our residents will step in and help with participating in the budget making process and volunteering their services to make this City the great community it is. Together, we will get through these difficult times because the Carson community lives its motto: Future Unlimited. Raymond R. Cruz Public Services General Manager 2 J u l y • A u g u s t 2 0 1 2
