4 of 12 <br /> <br />i. Other Minor Repairs/Maintenance <br />• Repair Street Light Pole #62. This item will be addressed as part of routine <br />O&M activities in March 2026. <br />• A tree well noted as being in poor condition at 310 Main Street was determined to be <br />located on private property, and therefore not part of the City’s tree replacement <br />program. <br /> <br />2. Maintenance and Operational Improvements Potentially Requiring New Resources <br /> <br />a. Enhanced Median Maintenance – Bernal Avenue & First Street <br />Median maintenance was among the items for which funding was reduced as part of the <br />current two-year budget. The City could allocate additional resources to maintain this <br />Downtown median via an additional one-time contractor work order, estimated at <br />$5,000. Funding has not been identified for this project at this time. <br /> <br />b. Museum on Main – Landscape Renovations <br />The configuration of the current Museum on Main landscaping reflects the need to maintain <br />an access route for a vehicle to decorate the Holiday tree annually (this route is currently <br />mulched), with other areas including a combination of turf and mulch. <br /> <br />Mulch is the lowest cost approach, but turf could still accommodate the truck and would <br />improve the look of the area. The City Landscape Architect recommends retaining the existing <br />turf and only updating a portion of the mulch area with drought-tolerant plants due to ongoing <br />maintenance costs and the use of the area for holiday events. <br /> <br />A modest renovation program requiring additional funding and staff time is outlined below: <br /> <br />• Replace landscape immediately adjacent to the building with low maintenance and low <br />water use plants. <br />• Replace mulch in front of the Museum on Main sign (the truck access route) with turf <br />• Refresh/replace remaining mulch areas <br />• Retain existing turf to remain for special events (holiday events) <br />• Replace irrigation only in newly landscaped areas <br />• Estimated Cost: $15,000 – $20,000 <br /> <br />c. Mulch & Weed Abatement – City Hall & Civic Center <br />Scheduled mulching and weed abatement services were reduced as part of the two-Year <br />Budget. Mulch replacement is typically performed on a two-year cycle, and weed abatement <br />is performed monthly. More frequent mulch replacement or weed abatement could be <br />undertaken but would incur additional costs, estimated at $20,000 per service. A funding <br />source has not been identified for this project at this time. <br /> <br />3. Downtown Asset Replacement and Major Infrastructure Upgrades <br />These items include replacement of assets with more significant costs and timeframes to <br />implement: <br /> <br />a. Replace/Repair Decorative Planters (Color Bowls/Pedestals)
