ATTACHMENT <br /> A�� <br /> Expendihme Reductlon De�ail <br /> Departrnent Desaiptlon <br /> Public Waics members would now be completed successively or delayed <br /> Services (c�ont) until other staff can be assigned to fill in. The overall affect <br /> will be longer time to complete fewer projects. In the short <br /> term, this will result in more pot holes, one of the early, most <br /> visible indicators. In the long term, the City may experience <br /> more claims and erosion of the city's Pavement Condition <br /> I ndex. <br /> C. The $40,000 budget reduction in street tree leaf pick-up <br /> service will resutt in a 50% reduction in scheduled crew <br /> availability, which will reduce the number of leaf vacuum <br /> trucks from two to one and decrease staffing flexibility in the <br /> Street Maintenance Section. This services reduction in <br /> combination with the already reduced monthly street <br /> cleaning schedule will result in more leaves and debris left <br /> on streets for longer periods of time, which will likely <br /> generate inconveniences, reduced aesthetics, and citizen <br /> complaints. The increased amount of accumulated debris in <br /> the street gutter during monthly sweeping service may also <br /> prevent the sweeper from completing its scheduled routes. <br /> Furthermore, the increased amount of leaves on the street <br /> will result in an increased volume of leaves entering the <br /> storm drain system, which will clog catch basins and disrupt <br /> pump operations. As a result, an increase in the number of <br /> effort hours devoted to storm drain system inspection and <br /> cleaning will be required, but since drainage maintenance <br /> crews have also been reduced, there will be localized <br /> drainage problems during wet weather. <br /> A.
