The grounds are maintained on a daily basis through various maintenance tasks (e.g., mowing, landscaping, trash pick-up, repairs, fountain maintenance and power washing) as well as the collection of unattended property in the Civic Center area. These items must be bagged, tagged, and transported for temporary storage and retrieval. In order to closely manage and facilitate this process and in light of recent litigation, the Executive Director of Parks, Recreation and Community Services is requesting the addition of two Maintenance Assistant positions. These additional positions will be responsible for the process of posting and/or distributing pre and post collection notices, collecting unattended property, and properly tagging and storing unattended property found in the Civic Center. Additionally, job duties will include the management of the stored property and responding to requests to retrieve property in accordance with the City's policy. These staff members will be trained to quickly and competently respond to health and safety concerns regarding conditions in the Civic Center on weekdays and weekends. They will coordinate with the Santa Ana Police Department, the pavement cleaning contractor and the landscape contractor regarding the collection of unattended property to ensure adherence to City policies and ensure that the contractors are able to perform their duties. Some general maintenance work may be completed by these individuals on an as -needed basis. The Agency is reallocating funds within the Civic Center Authority Maintenance budget to fund these positions. 55C-1 PRSCA- Maintenance Assistant Positions November 21, 2017 Page 2 STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #1 — Community Safety, and Goal #5 — Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability.
