The funds for this expenditure are included in the current year's budget within the line item for tree work (3036- 4530). Report. Summary In order to begin and track the work performed under the new program of City -owned tree maintenance, we have determined the need to have an up -to -date inventory of the trees we own and a systematized approach to their care. Staff has obtained proposals from a horticultural contractor to aid in the establishing such a system. Saratoga Tree Service has submitted an estimate of $3757.50 for this work. We have discussed the use of volunteers to assist in the various aspects of the proposal and feel that the actual cost to be far less than what is proposed. Fiscal.Impact 3757.50 is included in this year's budget within line item for tree work (3036- 4530). Attachments Proposal for Computerized Tree Inventory Motion _& Vote PROPOSAL FOR COMPUTERIZED TREE INVENTORY Dan Trinidad City of Saratoga 9/8/87 This proposal is designed for the organization of a complete list of necessary data for all the city owned trees in specified areas. The initial input will be started with the earlier data collected by Ed Sturtz on 1465 trees. A site survey will be done on each tree, and an inventory number will be given to each tree for easy recognition. The number tags will be driven one foot into the ground near the base of each tree, toward the street side. They will be flush to the ground so as not to pose any hazard, and painted orange for locating. The site survey will be conducted by Saratoga Tree Service, and all data will be collected, as• needed for -each tree. Any additional information will be noted pertaining to special problems that may need attention. This data will then be processed and entered into the program for analysis. The information obtained will be invaluable for the planning of budgets and understanding the future needs for fund allocation. The re -port generation of the requested data will serve to determine the immediate needs for service work and develop a plan to take care of the. hazard trees. This information can be assimilated in any number of ways. Organizing the work can be grouped by area, by type of tree, by health condition, or combinations. The software provided is easy to understand, and training of city personnel will be a simple task. We designed this program so it will be functional and easily used by anyone who will need it. Ongoing technical support will be provided as needed, (if in.fact, you will ever need any). Continued input will be an easy task_ by your designated employees. The program was designed with growth in mind, along with the extra criteria about sidewalks that will a'ss;ist the street department. And heritage status for preservation of the many special trees. We are so fortunate to have their continued care be our responsibility.

Report_ Summary Physical growth and increased use in the Civic Center Complex has made the need for added custodial help evident.

Attachments Resolution #2429 Building Custodial Services Report Proposal to Perform Custodial Services Motion_ & Vote TO: City Council DATE: November 6, 1987 FROM: Dan Trinidad, Jr. SUBJECT: Building Custodial Services ------------------------------------------------------------------ FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS With the physical growth and increased use in the Civic Center Complex, the need for added custodial help is evident. Staff has determined the most cost effective way to improve quality of custodial service is to contract out for night -time janitorial service to City Hall offices. We have received a bid of $539 per month for this service. By improvement in job assignments of existing full and part -time personnel, the increased cost to the City is approximately $450 per month. RECOMMENDED ACTION Direct the City Manager be authorized to approve the agreement with Pioneer Building Maintenance Company and adopt Appropriation Resolution for $3200 to be added to Fiscal Year 1987 -88 and $5400 for Fiscal Year 1988 -89. BACKGROUND As the number of improvements and activities on City property expands, so too does the burden to maintain those properties. The City Council has acted on its maintenance responsibilities as they pertain to City streets with its funding of the Pavement Management Program. In recognition of the duty to maintain its City buildings, parks, medians, and public landscaped areas, the City Council had requested staff to investigate and report on the cost effectiveness of utilizing contracts with the private sector to provide the necessary maintenance capabilities. This report on Building Custodial Services is the first of two on the subject of privatization of maintenance services. With the recent completion of the addition to the Senior Center, it is essential that the decision that this report generates be acted on as soon as possible. A second report which looks at landscape maintenance will be submitted in several weeks. Over the past several years, the activities at all City facilities has grown dramatically. Staffing in the various departments has increased, theater rental by drama groups has flourished, the recreation program conducted at the Community 1 Center has been expanded, and senior programs at the Center have been created and greatly enlarged. Now with the completion of the Senior Center addition, the amount of activities there will explode. Over the next several years activities will continue to grow. With the addition of the Hutton House,_ the City will be responsible for the quality care of an historical building. During, these past years, the custodial workers staff has not changed and therefore the quality of that service has suffered. The Maintenance Department is responsible for the custodial care of the buildings in the Civic Center complex. We currently have two full -time Building Maintenance Custodians and two part -time temporary Custodians who do all custodial work at City Hall, Civic Theater, Community Center, Senior Center, and the offices in the Corporation Yard. They also perform the heavy floor cleaning and waxing at HAkone Gardens. Each of the part -time workers puts in approximately 70 hours per month. One works primarily on weekends during the high rental use of the Community Center and Civic Theater. The custodial requirements of a public agency differ somewhat from those of a private owner. The City's buildings not only provide office space in which to conduct busi -ness, but are also utilized as public meeting and recreation facilities. Large groups of people u.se the Civic Theater for meeting's and performances. The Community Center and Senior Center are used at various times of the day and night for recreation activities and for private group functions. Because of these public uses, the need for custodial services other than just jan- itorial is evident. Those services include building security, on- the -spot facility repair, the supply of paper products, and other assistance as needed. In analyzing the Senior Center . additon and the activities we understand will take place there, we have determined that a minimum of 20 to 25 hours per week will be required to keep that facility clean. This assumes that the clean -up of the kitchen work areas is done by the kitchen staff and the janitorial requirements of the kitchen are confined to the floors and other standard miscellaneous cleaning. ANALYSIS In order to react to this added use and to improve the quality of custodial services provided to the City's buildings, we have investigated several methods of dealing with our building custodial shortcomings. The options we see are: 1. Maintain .status quo 2. Add to full -time custodial staff 3. Increase hours worked by existing part -time helpers or add part -time helpers 4. Supplement or replace the current custodial staff with contracted private janitors 2 Maintain. Status._Quo - As stated earlier, with the increases both in physical dimensions and in use of the facilities, the quality of custodial care will continue to decline. In the current state, we receive numerous complaints on the cleanliness of some of our buildings'. With the addition to the Senior Center and the high intensity use it will receive, 'I do not believe this to be a viable option. Add_ to, Full-Time Custodial Staff The beginning salary of a Building Maintenance Custodian is approximately $1500 per month. Fringe Benefits of about $500 per month bring the hard cost of this position to around $2000 a month. If we added a full -time position and at the same time cut out the two part -time helpers the net increase to the City would be about $1300 monthly. Both direct and indirect overhead will also be increased if this option were chosen. �Lncrease__Mpprs worKea ' b 9XXSti419, Part -Time, Helpers. or, Add .Part - Time .Helpers In evaluating our needs it appears that an alit onal 100 hours per 'month will be needed to care for the Senior Center addition. A portion of these hours could be added to one of the current helper's time. However, P.E.R.S. limits the use of part -time employees to 20 hours per week. At $5 per hour, the City's direct cost would be $500 per month. Very little overhead cost would be attributed to this alternative. In the past, we have found it difficult to find dependable workers to fill our Custodial Helper positions. Supplement.or_Re lace t'he Current Custodial Staff With.Contracted Frivate_Janitors - Because our custodial staff has more than 3anitorial responsibilities, it would be di:fficu,lt to replace them with private contracts.. The two full -time workers are long - time, employees who know the responsibilities of their jobs. However, improvements can be made in their job assignments which would give the City more flexibility and better coverage of the Civic Center complex. The night -time cleaning of the offices at City Hall could be handled by a private janitorial contractor. We have obtained two proposals for that work. The low bid, submitted by Pioneer Building Maintenance Company, is $539 per month for the complete service (see attached). Contracting out for the cleaning of City Hall. offices while retaining our two full -time custodians would allow us to .reduce the hours of our part -time workers by as much as 2.0 hours per month, which amounts to about $100. With that reduction, the net cost to the City will be less than $450 per month. If we started this contract on December 1, 1987, the total impact to this year's budget would be about $3200, and about $5400 for Fiscal Year 1988 -89. k1 PIONEER BUILDING MAINTENANCE CO. 266 GIFFORD AVENUE SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA 95110 -2604 (408) 286 -7670 CITY of SARATOGA 13777 Fruitvale Avenue Saratoga, CA 950.70 We are pleased to submit this proposal to perform the services sPer-ified of the fol` lowing 'location: City Hall 13777 Fruitvale Avenue Saratoga, CA 95070 Areas, to be serviced: AREAS AS SPECI1= IED The sr,er i f i cations and terms, as set forth in the attatche:d rages, describe the service to be performed, and the fl^equ- -ncy and conditions of the agreement.

AGENDA ITEM __�Jb MEETING DATE:November 18, 1987 ORIGINATING DEPT.:City Clerk CITY MGR. APPROV SUBJECT: Resolution Declaring Weeds Growing on Certain Described Property to be a Public Nuisance Recomended Motion: Adopt resolution declaring weeds growing on certain described property to be a public nuisance. Report Summary: The attached resolution represents the first step in Saratoga's annual weed abatement program administered by the County Building Official. The County has determined that 431 parcels in Saratoga this year have excessive weed growth which is a fire hazard or otherwise noxious or dangerous. The Council should pass the resolution setting the public hearing for weed abatement -- December 16 this year. The County then sends the owners of the 431 parcels notices informing them that the weeds must be abated, either by the owners or by the County; when County abatement will commence; and how they may present any objections at the public hearing. The public hearing is noticed in the newspapers as well. After the public hearing, the Council passes another resolution ordering abatement on properties whose owners did not object or whose objections the Coucil felt were invalid. The final steps take place next summer, when the County presents the Council with a list of properties whose abatement bills have not been paid, and the Council, after hearing any objections, passes a resolution declaring liens on those properties. These procedures are the same as those followed for the last several years. Fiscal Impacts: None to City. County recovers its costs from administrative portion of fee charged to property owners.
