Volunteer Partners

July 4, 2015

Volunteer Highlight Many students and residents from the community enjoy volunteering for Special Events. July 4th Fireworks and Concert and many Special Events are a success due to the dedicated volunteers who continue to volunteer their time and make a difference in the Community they live in.

Many of the MVP members are also past participants in Recreation classes and programs, and want to volunteer because of the sense of pride they feel about the Milpitas Community. According to Dr. Van La, she enjoyed volunteering for City programs because “we are like a big FAMILY helping one another”. She feels very lucky to have been part of the City’s volunteer program while in high school.

In the MVP office, we continue to have dedicated volunteers year after year because of the programs we offer to the Community, but most importantly the fun experience that one has when volunteering in our events.

Make a Difference and Volunteer!The City of Milpitas hosts many community programs, events, and activities throughout the year that serve the Milpitas population and local surrounding areas. Volunteers are frequently recruited to assist in various aspects of these programs, providing valuable staff support as well as help and encouragement to citizens.

Opportunities exist for working on a variety of tasks in every department within the city structure. Different opportunities are available at various times throughout the year and time commitments vary based on the specific task requirements and the volunteers availability. All those interested in volunteering must complete an MVP application and participate in the screening and interview process.

Volunteer applications can be mailed to you or downloaded from www.ci.milpitas.ca.gov(in the Recreation Services section).


Volunteers NeededWe Want You!Our Fall line up of volunteer oppportunities are waiting for you! Making a difference is easy, fun, and rewarding with the Milpitas Volunteer Partners Program. For more information or to volunteer for a specific event, please call (408) 586-3207.

Street Sweeping Collection Guidelines Milpitas residential streets are swept twice monthly to keep our streets beautiful and storms drains clean and unobstructed. For effective street sweeping, there are a few very important guidelines to remember on your sweeping day:

• Keep cars off street from 7:00AM–5:00PM on sweeping day so debris can most effectively be removed.

• Use your green yard trims cart for large amounts of organic material such as leaves, branches, plants and grass clippings. The sweeper can only remove piles less than 3 inches tall and 12 inches wide.

• Have extra yard trims that don’t fit in your cart? No problem. Use your own 32-gallon can! Call Republic Services at (408) 432-0444 for an “Extra Yard Trims” decal, which must be placed on the can, then set out next to your green cart on collection day.

• Know your street sweeping day: call Republic Services at (408) 432-0444 or visit www.republicservices.com/site/santa-clara-ca/en/pages/city-of-milpitas.aspx

Curbside Collection Be sure to set out your single-stream recycling and garbage carts on the street, with the wheels against the curb, before 6:00AM on collection day. Containers may be set out 12 hours before and left out 12 hours after your collection day. At all times, containers must be kept in your garage or backyard, out of public view. When your recycling cart is full, cut or fold flattened cardboard so that it will fit inside and place it next to the cart. Used motor oil may be set out in the approved jugs only at the curb, not on the street. Get approved jugs at your neighborhood fire station. Remember: do not dispose of hot BBQ ashes in your cart! Hot ashes can cause fires in garbage trucks and carts so let ashes cool completely, about one week, before placing in your cart or can. Questions? Call Republic Services at (408) 432-0444.
