EXHIBIT 1 <br />Page 4 of 6 <br /> <br />structures at Cabrillo/Edna/Santiago, new restrooms at <br />Cabrillo/Portola, Edna Park lot restoration, Santiago Park log <br />cabin restoration, Riverview bleachers, and stolen park signs. <br /> Hydration stations are funded by cell tower revenue and are <br />currently in design with construction to follow. <br /> Design is currently underway for a splash pad in Ward 3, but <br />construction requires funding. <br />Additional Teen Center The City offers a variety of teen programming and activities in the <br />existing community centers and library locations. More teen activities <br />will be added once smaller community centers re-open to the public <br />(e.g. Logan). In addition, the Delhi Library will have dedicated teen <br />space and teen programming; and Delhi park lighting has been <br />identified as a priority use of federal ARPA money, adding more <br />flexibility to the timing of such programs. <br />Dual-Use Parks with the <br />Santa Ana Unified School <br />District <br />During the March 4 meeting of the Joint School Collaboration City <br />Council Subcommittee meeting, there was general interest in future <br />additional discussions of maximizing the use of public property. <br />Upgrade Parks & Snack Bars As funding becomes available, staff proposes the highest priority park <br />projects. The existing budget includes funding for lighting, restrooms, <br />splash pads, field, and playground improvements at various parks. <br /> <br />The cost of each snack bar upgrade is approximately $95,000, <br />including new paint and epoxy flooring, stainless steel sink, hot water <br />heater, electrical and plumbing upgrades, and door/window <br />replacement. Staff maintains a priority list for Renovation that <br />includes Jerome, Memorial, Thornton, Riverview, Cabrillo, Adams and <br />Rosita, which can be addressed as funding becomes available. <br />Community Garden City Council could direct staff to see if ARPA funding can be used for a <br />community garden. In addition to identifying a location, staff would <br />need to determine the feasibility and ongoing cost. <br />Santa Anita Mural <br />Restoration <br />This is a mural on a private building, and addressing it could create an <br />expectation that all private-building murals be maintained by the City. <br />Staff has been in contact with interested parties and they are aware of <br />the options available to them. <br />Market at Santa Ana Bus <br />Terminal <br />This project was included in the Revive Spending Plan. Staff has found <br />that the location is not feasible for the envisioned farmers market. A <br />different location could be considered if a farmers market is a high <br />priority for City Council. A recurring budget would be necessary for <br />special-event staffing to manage the vendors and the location. <br />Enhance Recruitment and <br />Fill Vacancies <br />A separate staff report on the March 19 agenda proposes to add a <br />Human Resources Analyst to increase recruiting efforts. <br />Address Homelessness and <br />Safety Issues <br /> <br />Increase Grant Writing Staff <br />The Interim City Manager has directed a reallocation of vacant <br />positions to provide for a Grant Analyst, 2 additional Code <br />Enforcement Officers, a Senior Organization Development & Training <br />Analyst and a Deputy City Manager. These staffing reallocations will <br />be included in the proposed FY24-25 budget.
