Request for Proposal (RFP) for in -field ball diamond maintenance of all four districts. The City
notified 16 companies (4 Santa Ana companies), 17 companies downloaded the documents (one
Santa Ana company), and two companies submitted proposals (zero Santa Ana companies) for in-
field ball diamond maintenance for city parks.
An evaluation committee consisting of three representatives from PRCSA Park Facilities Division
reviewed and rated the proposals. The proposals were evaluated according to the criteria listed
in the RFP, which includes firm/team experience, reference/relevant project experience, listing of
resources, manner for performing services/schedule and fee. The results of the RFP evaluation

The City proposes to enter into four-year agreements with each proposer. Major League Infields,
Inc. would maintain fields for Districts 1, 3, and 4. Professional Sports Field Maintenance would
maintain fields in District 2.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities & Infrastructure,
Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy B
(equitably maintain existing streets and associated assets in a state of good repair so they are
clean, safe and aesthetically pleasing for all users).
FISCAL IMPACT
The FY 2019-20 budget contains new allocations in alignment with Measure X funding including
increased funding in the PRCSA for improving the scope of contract services for landscaping,
trees, lakes, ball diamonds, and custodial.
The in -field ball diamond maintenance services proposals are higher than anticipated, however
PRCSA has enough funding for FY 2019-20 to cover the increased cost for the remainder of the
fiscal year. Additional funding for the in -field maintenance ($52,000) is required to continue the
in -field ball diamond maintenance services agreement in FY 20-21 and beyond.
