DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency's Parks, Fleet, and Facilities Division maintains the Santa Ana Civic Center as part of the Civic Center Joints Power Authority with the County of Orange. On January 24, 2022, Parks, Recreation and Community Services issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for hardscape pavement cleaning and infectious waste removal services. As a result, on May 17, 2022, Superior Property Services, Inc. was awarded an agreement from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2026. On August 2, 2022, the City Council approved the Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan that reflected the entire American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) allocation of local fiscal recovery funds. A $700,000 in cost savings was subsequently identified and redirected, by the City Manager's authorization, to the COVID-19 Sanitization project. Staff is finding an increasing need for cleaning and sanitization at high -traffic pedestrian and bicyclist areas throughout the City. Due to the prompt and excellent services already provided by Superior Property Services, Inc., staff would like to increase current services to enhance public health and safety.
