Whitney, d,b,a. Strategic5olutions, will provide comprehensive grant consulting services to the City of Santa Ana Facilities, Fleet and Central Stores (FFCS). Drawing on its extensive experience in all phases of the grant process, Strategic5olutions will work interdepartmentally and with public and private entities to achieve program objectives and maximize access to funding. StrategicSolutions will focus on funding opportunities to support the following FFCS plans and priorities: 1. Green Facilities, Fleet and Central Stores Strategic Plan 1 Green Fleet Action Plan: Electrlc Vehicles and Charging Infrastructure 3. Green Fleet Action Plan: Propane Vehicles and Infrastructure 4. Green Fleet Action Plan: Environmentally Preferable Purchases and Practices Policy 5. Public Outreach for Green Initiatives G. Others, as identified or assigned ACCOMPLISHMENTS: FISCAL YEARS 2010/11 - 2012/13 In Fiscal Year 2010/2011, StrategicSolutions with the assistance of FFCS staff developed a Green Strategic Plan to increase the sustainability of the division. The plan outlines specific short and long- term goals, punctuated by a timeline of quantifiable actions. Focusing heavily on energy efficiency initiatives and employing forward thinking in fleet management, the goals of the plan are to improve air quality, reduce the City's carbon footprint, and channel cost savings into environmental projects. During Fiscal Year 2011/2012, three area - specific action plans were developed to advance FFCS ultimate goal of running an environmentally friendly fleet and stores operation. The first plan discusses electric vehicles and infrastructure, the second focuses on propane vehicles and infrastructure, and the third plan advocates environmentally preferable purchases and practices within the FFCS. Last Fiscal Year, 2012/13, as required by local funding agencies, a public outreach and education plan was developed for the FFCS. The plan proposes actions that will increase public awareness of the green initiatives of the division and by doing so increase public support for funding. Concurrent with and in support of strategy development, StrategicSolutions secured close to $1.1 million in grant funding for FFCS. Funding included propane and compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles and propane, CNG and electric vehicle infrastructure. Implementation of proposed actions over the last three fiscal years resulted in the FFCS steadily climbing from #99, then to #38, then to #10 and finally to #5 in 2013 in Government Fleet Magazine's 100 Best Fleets competition.

Two required elements - community outreach /public education and reports /requests for reimbursements - began to feature strongly in the work program. In Fiscal Year 2013/2014, StrategicSolutions proposes to continue its focus on securing funds for additional projects, completing grant management activities as required by the grant agreements and implementing the Public Outreach for Green Initiatives plan. Working with staff, the company will also start the process of LEED Certification for the Corporate Yard. StrategicSolutions will draw from the list of grants Identified in the Green Facilities, Fleet and Central Stores Strategic Plan and the three supporting specific action plans for additional grant funding.
