Overview <br /> Having an operations and maintenance plan is as important as getting <br /> the trails built. Proper maintenance allows the initial investment to be fully utilized and enjoyed.Having an operations plan in place can result m <br /> in more productive work time from maintenance staff.A maintenanceop k y" � <br /> .% <br /> schedule and operations plan must be rigid enough to act as a standard <br /> that can be referenced by employees, yet flexible enough to change <br /> with changing policies, physical environments, budgets, staff, and <br /> weather. <br /> The City's current Operations & Maintenance (O & M) Department is responsible for the operations and <br /> maintenance of the city's infrastructure.This section defines the department's responsibilities as they relate to <br /> trails and addresses overall priorities.This section does not cover day-to-day scheduling and resource allocation, <br /> which, given their fluid nature, require ongoing decisions by the director and the department managers. The <br /> intent here is to provide the Park Board, City Council, and residents with a broader perspective of how this <br /> function is structured and conducted to ensure effectiveness and efficiency of the operation. Greater detail on <br /> each of the issues addressed in this section is available through the department director on request. <br /> ISSUED FOR REVIEW moil Master Trail Plan <br /> 12004 <br />
