<br />Major League Softball, Inc. <br />Management Plan <br />City of Santa Ana Infield Maintenance <br /> <br />Specialized Weekly, Montbly and Mowing Progr~s . . <br />MLS will dedicate an experienced staff member (the Drrector or Area Lead) to handle the specialized <br />tasks associated with border edging, infield mowing, periodic turf aeration and fertilization, and <br />irrigation controller management. This staffmemberwill be equipped with a gas powered edger, Tru <br />Cut reel mower, walk behind piston type aerator and a mechanical broadcaster. <br /> <br />It is important to understand that the staff member charged with this responsibility will be a highly <br />skilled individual that will be adept with leaving clean, straight borders and will be experienced and <br />knowledgeable with turf maintenance techniques. These tasks will not be performed by the Tractor <br />Operators assigned to provide the Routine Maintenance Program. This way, both routine and <br />specialized services will be rendered at an unsurpassed level of quality and will be consistently <br />performed on schedule. <br /> <br />Bi-Monthly Tasks <br />Using either a Kubota 2700 or 4100 tractor, both equipped with customized scarifying tines and a <br />3 point grading box, scarify each infield surface to a depth of y:, inch. Then using the grading box, <br />"float" the infield surface to remove areas that are high and ensure a level playing surface. When the <br />floating process is complete, the infield mixed will be heavy watered to ensure proper compaction <br />prior to use. This task will be performed by the Director or an Area Lead and will be completed <br />based on the time schedule prescribed by City staff. <br /> <br />Annual Tasks <br />As one of the State's largest purchasers of West Coast Sand and Gravel's products, MIS will <br />provide the infield mix materials specified in the RFP during December each year at the most <br />competitive prices obtainable. MLS has already locked in pricing for the next year and West Coast <br />is warranting that the material will be delivered to MLS on demand. <br /> <br />After the infield mix has been delivered and dwnp spread, the Director will laser level each field <br />using one of MIS's Kubota tractors outfitted with a 3 point grading system and dual cone laser. <br />MLS warrants that all fields will be laser graded to optimize drainage and playing conditions. <br /> <br />Contact Protocol <br />MLS is managed administratively by David R. Johnson, President. Johnson works out of both the <br />Corporate Headquarters in Burbank and the Orange County Area Office in the City of Orange.
