Creating Organizational Capacity

Delivering on the Realignment Plan requires rebuilding the operational backbone of the city.

Investments to create greater city organizational capacity include:

• Restoring maintenance and cleaning capacity for parking structures, parks, and beaches, with new custodial, groundskeeping, and mechanical staff.
• Expanding the Homeless Support Team (HoST) to seven-day service with enhanced cleanup and response capability.
• Launching the city-operated Ambulance Operator Program in 2026, generating an estimated 7ドル million in annual revenue.
• Re-establishing the Urban Forester position and pruning program.
• Reinvesting in certain city operations – Finance, Human Resources, Event Services, and Marine Safety – to support expanded service delivery.
• Initiating a land-asset strategy for key city-owned Downtown parcels (including 4th/5th/Arizona, Parking Structure 1, Old Fire Station 1, Kiss-and-Ride Lot), projected to generate 100ドル-200ドル million in value and replenish cash reserves to the 200ドル-300ドル million range by 2028.
