The steam-cleaning <br />program allows for three linear blocks to be cleaned each night, five <br />nights a week, Wednesday through Sunday. Based on this schedule, it <br />takes five weeks to complete one full cleaning cycle pursuant to the <br />delineated areas in the attached map (Exhibit 1). The program also <br />allows for additional cleanings as needed for major spills or to prepare <br />for events. In addition, the steam cleaning complies with the City's <br />National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. <br /> <br />TSCM has been diligent in addressing their work plan in detail, and their <br />efforts in the Downtown have met the required level of cleanliness. <br />Staff recommends that the City exercise the first renewal option. <br /> <br />The only alternative is to not award the first renewal option, <br />would result in a lack of steam cleaning services in Downtown. <br />would be detrimental to the Downtown, resulting in an unacceptable <br />of maintenance for City sidewalks. <br /> <br />which <br />This <br />level <br /> <br />25C-1 <br />
