During this step, you will have the opportunity to record your financial and volunteer hour investment that you spent during this calendar year. A list of time and expense examples is embedded in the portal. The Fire Safe Marin spreadsheet will help you to calculate your volunteer hours
The easiest way to complete this page is to record the “Hours Worked” under two categories. Time spent on filling green cans and curbside pickup can be entered under “Landscaping 0-100 ft. from Base of Dwelling Unit.” Hours related to “Meetings, presentations, program administration, home site visits etc.” can be recorded under “Miscellaneous.”
Volunteer hours you spend meeting as a committee, hosting an educational event, coordinating a chipper program, meeting with fire department personnel all count. Here you can also record the hours you and your residents spend landscaping, doing DIY home hardening and working in community common space or community adjacent open space.
If you are recording “Money Spent” you will need to know what categories of spending were reported to you. For example: Contractor, Home Improvement, Landscaping, etc.
