(A) The District should offer a basic package of maintenance services, to include policing all privately owned sidewalks once per day, seven days per week. Principal alleys should be policed once per week. Basic coverage would include picking up trash and spot weeding as needed.
(B) The estimated first-year funding is sufficient to provide additional maintenance beyond the basic level, as needed to achieve consistent standards and attractive appearance. Secondary treatment could include scheduled maintenance of tree grates, bus stop zones, and intensified cleaning for selected zones of high pedestrian concentration.
(C) Maintenance services should be provided by a commercial vendor under a multi-year contract to the District. Maintenance personnel should be closely supervised to ensure consistent performance. Identifiable uniforms and equipment should be utilized to help create public awareness for the District's efforts to improve the downtown environment.
(D) The District should closely coordinate its efforts with the Metro Government to ensure existing public maintenance services are continued or improved.
