DISCUSSION As of July 1, 2022, park maintenance functions have transferred from the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency (PRCSA) to the Public Works Agency (PWA). PWA's Parks, Fleet and Facilities Division provides custodial services for park restrooms and at various park buildings through a Contractor. On February 24, 2022, a Request for Proposals (RFP) for custodial services was issued by PRCSA and Valley Maintenance Corporation was awarded an agreement on May 3, 2022. Valley Maintenance Corporation provides custodial services at all City parks. Their highly professional and prompt responses have been instrumental in keeping well maintained park facilities. With the recent adoption of the City's FY 2022-23 budget, the City Council approved an additional $2.5 Million for park maintenance. Staff determined that the public restrooms would benefit from an additional cleaning by increasing the frequency of services from twice a day to three times a day. In addition, in an effort to provide clean facilities for the public to enjoy, Valley Maintenance will include pressure -washing services in and around the public restrooms.
