CHAPTER ONE ‐ INTRODUCTION Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission staff maintains 12 regional parks and 5 golf courses, which amount to over 6,000 acres of park land. In response to the recommendations outline in the 2008 approved Strategic Plan, the Commission decided to develop a Maintenance Management Plan for all parks and golf courses to help the staff manage in a more efficient and productive manner. The Commission hired PROS Consulting to evaluate the maintenance needs and develop standards for the system working directly with the park maintenance staff in developing the Maintenance Management Plan. The Maintenance Management Plan is focused on achieving maintenance outcomes and efficiency for each of the 12 parks and 5 golf courses. This Maintenance Management Plan is designed to demonstrate to the Park and Recreation Commission members and Director the needs of the maintenance staff to achieve the goals and outcomes they desire based on a quantifiable basis.
1.1 PROJECT PURPOSE AND GOAL
The Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission staff felt it necessary to establish a Maintenance Management Plan for the park system. There were three goals staff intends to achieve with the development of this Maintenance Management Plan. The top three (3) goals were:
• Provide safe, clean, and green parks and recreation facilities to the public as efficiently and effectively as resources would allow
• Identify the highest and best use of full‐time staff, part‐time staff, and contracted staff based on meeting customer needs in the most cost effective manner to provide the desired level of maintenance
• Create a maintenance system that is capable of growing with the agency as it applies to the acquisition and development of future parks and recreation facilities
This Maintenance Management Plan will assist the Commission staff in predicting labor needs, identifying the proper resources to fill those needs, and establishing a staffing structure that holds up to growth as well as economic downturns.
The Maintenance Management Plan is tied to the Commission’s new CAM’s (Asset Management Plan) and incorporates daily maintenance task and cost that are tied to lifecycle and replacement schedules for all fixed assets.
The final recommendations in this Plan will include action strategies to maximize staff resources, equipment, use of volunteers, and life cycle management of existing assets, to accomplish effective and efficient maintenance operations on a yearly basis.
1.2 PROCESS AND METHODOLOGY
The development of this document was accomplished through a review of the current Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission assets to determine the current maintenance standards in place as it applies to each asset by maintenance task. The consulting team and staff then identified desired maintenance outcomes to be achieved for each asset, and documented the maintenance tasks required to meet the desired outcomes,

and the frequency required, along with the financial and personnel resources required to meet the standards of care for each asset in the system. The recommendations present a comprehensive approach to maintenance operations by asset and by park, the cost to operate each park and golf course, and it identifies new maintenance standards and management strategies to meet the desired outcomes.
The PROS Team conducted an on‐site review of each park and golf course to document existing maintenance conditions occurring with park and recreation staff. The on‐site review included interviews with Commission staff, walking the grounds with staff to gain insight into current operating processes, observing current levels of maintenance standards in place, gathering quantifiable information on the care of grounds and identifying future logical maintenance standards and outcomes for consideration. Information was gathered by staff on the current management practices, time audits required to perform each maintenance task and standards and a general use of resources and technologies which provide an overview of each park’s operations and level of efficiency.
Analysis of this information was performed and translated into a maintenance management model the County Parks purchased called CAM’s for organizing each park and golf course property by asset, frequency of maintenance tasks required to maintain the asset appropriately, the cost of each task including personnel, equipment and supplies for each asset existing in the system.
The Maintenance Management Plan development entailed several tasks that included:
• Identification and documentation of all assets and possible maintenance tasks required to maintain the asset
• Identification and documentation of all areas that maintenance tasks could be performed in by maintenance zone and amenity
• Developing and documenting time to produce each maintenance tasks based on assumed standards for all possible assets in the system
• Identifying and documenting frequencies for all possible maintenance tasks based on existing service levels and desired outcomes.
• Creating and documenting an inventory of every asset within each County park
• Measuring and documenting all square footages of turf and landscaped areas to be maintained
• Measuring and documenting all linear footages of hardscapes
• Indentifying the current lifecycle of each fixed asset in the system
• Creating a document capable of holding all of the above information and capable of generating desired reports based on the inputs working in coordination with CAM’s.
• Identify the highest and best use of every job class
Maintenance standards were prepared and the appropriate level of frequency applied to each asset including frequency and quality of maintenance outcomes desired. Man‐hours were applied to each task to maintain the asset according to the desired standards and summarized to identify estimated man‐hour requirements. These man‐hour estimates

established the base‐line to determine labor costs by management zone and asset in each park and golf course.
1.3 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
1.3.1 IDENTIFICATION AND DOCUMENTATION Parks staff documented all of the maintenance tasks that were performed on a weekly, monthly or annual basis within each County park and golf course. Staff and PROS jointly created and documented the list of assets and maintenance tasks that could be performed. Example: Trash removal would occur in turf areas, landscape areas, restrooms, courts, playgrounds, campgrounds, beaches, golf courses, water parks, etc.
1.4 DEVELOPING TIME STANDARDS
It was important to developed obtainable and realistic time standards that could be met by a typical maintenance staff member. The Parks Division staff identified a typical crew and the Senior Park Maintenance Worker, of that crew, performed a time and motion study for every task over a 4‐month period which resulted in an average time per unit to maintain.
In addition to documenting time standards it was also important to understand the amount of work that a standard employee could accomplish in a standard day or year. A full‐time position is considered to be paid for 2,080 hours per year. Those paid hours include vacation time, sick time, holidays, break periods, transportation time, meeting time, etc. The average production time for a full‐time equivalent employee, working in the parks division, was determined to be 1,500 hours per year. Again, it is important to note that 1,500 hours per year is the time that an employee is actually performing a maintenance task.
1.5 IDENTIFYING FREQUENCIES
As part of the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission Strategic Plan, created in 2008, three (3) service levels were established for County parks and two levels for County golf courses. These service levels included minimum standards for various maintenance functions that take place in a public park and golf course. Frequency levels were established, as part of the Maintenance Management Plan, for every task within each standard and zone in a park or golf course.
1.6 ASSET INVENTORY
Staff conducted a full inventory of every asset within each individual park and golf course. (See Maintenance Summary of Assets and Tasks in Appendix 1).
1.7 CREATING THE DOCUMENT
PROS staff created a document that could hold all of the collected data, calculate hours per task based on varying frequencies, total needed staff hours by park asset service level, as well as generated reports that looked at the park system as a whole and not just individual parks, and golf courses. The Parks Division now has a tool capable of calculating true and accurate staffing, equipment and supply costs based on direct and indirect costs.

1.8 STAFFING AND SPAN OF CONTROL
Staffing levels and descriptions of responsibility for Oakland County Parks will include: Park Maintenance Helper, Skilled Maintenance Mechanic, General Maintenance Mechanic, Grounds Keeper, Park Supervisors, and Park Managers will be based upon the production hours derived from the Maintenance Management Plan. It is recommended that Park Supervisors will oversee an average of 14,000 annual combined employee/contact production hours for quality span of control. Park Managers within the Parks Division will oversee an average of 50,000 annual employee/contract production hours for quality span of control.
1.9 REPORT FORMAT
The following report presents the findings of the data collection and analysis, focusing on organizing the information into a quantifiable format. This plan can be used by the park staff as a decision‐making tool as well as a management tool for implementing and monitoring recommendations. This report is organized to present the following elements:
• Grounds Maintenance Levels, Definition and Characteristics
• Asset Maintenance Task Name, Task Type, Task Quantity/Task Unit and Frequency Summary
• Special Maintenance Items
• Maintenance Costs Examples
• Conclusion
• Appendices – Actual Hours, Maintenance Standards and Man‐hour Projections
1.10 SUMMARY OF OBSERVATIONS AND ANALYSIS
The Oakland County Parks Commission has a very talented group of Managers, Supervisors, and Park Helpers working to achieve a great park and recreation system. Through the course of developing this maintenance management plan they have learned how to address the following observations and analysis to operate in the most efficient manner.
The observations and analysis that must be addressed in this Maintenance Management Plan by staff in 2010 include the following:
• All parks and golf courses in the past have not had established maintenance standards by asset, task, frequency and cost on a consistent basis
• Administrative costs was not broken out for managing staff, correctional workers, volunteers, meetings, travel time, and work planning
• The level of maintenance staff costs to overall budget is too high at golf courses and some park areas to meet the outcomes desired financially. Improvements were made in 2009 budget year and more will be accomplished in 2010
• Park areas over maintained include outdoor wedding spaces versus the revenue received, underutilized sports fields, some golf rough areas that are out of play,

non‐use areas of parks, camping areas in off season times of the year, and landscape costs.
• The maintenance staff in the past has been very reactive and has had difficulty staying focused on frequency tasks required to maintain a quality experience for the volume of users. Through the course of developing this plan they have come to realize how important managing each asset by maintenance task and frequency, using the appropriate staff person on the maintenance task so they don’t drive up the costs and tracking their costs to manage in the most efficient manner
• Staff has been very reactive in maintenance management but now with CAM’s in place will be able to manage more by work plans established at least one (1) week out versus waiting for daily work plans
• Additional maintenance training is needed for staff members on managing to standards, costs and site outcomes by each asset in each zone in each park and golf course
• The appropriate level of staff worker type for the type of work required needs to be in place to achieve the desired outcomes financially for each asset and task
• Equipment costs need to be incorporated into the cost per acre, the cost per task per asset
• Maintenance staffing cost and benefits for each park and golf course should not exceed 65% of the total park and or golf operating maintenance budget
1.11 SUMMARY OF KEY RECOMMENDATIONS
The Maintenance Management Team has truly embraced the process to manage park assets in the most efficient manner possible. The staff has provided time and quality input into the process of developing this Maintenance Management Plan and support these recommendations.
The key recommendations include:
• Adopt the maintenance standards for frequency of task for each asset in the system as presented in this Maintenance Management Plan/CAM’s software and continue to address maintenance impacts as new areas and facilities are added
• Establish a process to continually explore alternative ways of reducing costs and funding of maintenance for each park and golf course in the system.
• Develop realistic annual maintenance goals and objectives to be included in each employee work plan that can serve as the baseline for maintenance performance measurements and staff evaluations. Budget maintenance costs based on standards, frequency of task to be maintained by asset and the costs to achieve the outcomes desired
• Develop an annual process to review maintenance priorities, identify annual projects and improvements to be completed and review with staff
• All new parks and amenities added need to have maintenance cost outlined in advance prior to development so the staff can accurately budget for maintenance

• Partnership agreements need to be worked out in advance to pay for the direct costs that the event causes that is above routine maintenance and reimbursed back to the parks operational budget. These items would include overtime, extra staff, additional supply cost, etc.
• Seek to change the arrangement on wedding space at golf courses for this work to be privately done and paid for by Oaks Management as this costs is very expensive in return for the dollars the Commission receives
• High use areas such as restrooms, trails, water parks and campground areas need to have higher frequency levels of cleaning, repairs, and trash pick‐up than normal on ‐peak times. Additional staff must be available in the late afternoon and weekends to accomplish this so the Commission doesn’t pay overtime
• Individual zone management budgets must be developed based on agreed to standards minus volunteer and correctional staff support to achieve the expectations of the users of the parks and golf courses
• A lifecycle maintenance plan for keeping buildings and grounds amenities up to their level of care to extend their useful life is needed along with a maintenance endowment to draw from as needed
• All lifecycle costs need to be develop on a GIS system with time replacement schedules in place and tied to the CAM’s program
• The County Park staff needs to establish the asset level of the parks system and then budget annually at least 4% of the asset value of the park system to be spent on maintaining what the system owns each year
• An environmental maintenance plan for the sensitive areas of each county park needs to be established and managed by the park maintenance staff
• The County needs to invest in training for staff to understand maintenance standards, performance measures and tracking, lifecycle maintenance, volunteer management, and how to track cost of service for all tasks and services provided
• Work plans for staff need to be established along with results for each maintenance zone and staff member on a weekly basis
• A program plan for each County park needs to be established and tracked to focus on what age segments are using the facilities and which age segments are left out to incorporate amenities that will encourage their use
• Park amenities not used should be taken out of parks and replaced with amenities that are used to create a higher level of use and value from the community
• Low cost maintenance improvements such as improved signage, interpretive signage, natural resource management of natural sites to control evasive species, and reducing use areas based on time of year and use need to be incorporated into work staffing maintenance plans

CHAPTER TWO ‐ GROUNDS MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT
A site visit of each County park and golf course was performed to asses the current grounds maintenance program including identifying maintenance areas (zones), amenities (assets), required maintenance operations, general conditions, current maintenance practices, and current standards and frequency levels occurring. This assessment included only the grounds and did not include the actual maintenance activities of buildings or facilities. These areas need to be included in the future.
2.1 CURRENT MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS OBSERVATONS
Through on‐site evaluation and discussions with the maintenance staff, the following baseline information was identified:
• Special events have a major time and cost impact on the Park’s operation and budget
• The quality and level of service for maintenance of both grounds and golf courses is comparable with other major public signature parks and golf courses, but slightly below that of destination private theme parks even though user expectations of quality are at a theme park level based on discussions with staff
• Most visitor experiences are positive based on comments staff receive and complaints on record
• The current cost structure for maintenance activities had been increasing over the past five years but was significantly reduced in the 2009 budget
• Contract services are used to supplement full time staff including:
o Correctional workers
• Zone maintenance has not been used in key locations by park for timely response to trash removal, restroom cleaning, trail maintenance, shelter maintenance, gamefield maintenance and playground areas
• The Park system does not have a good work order system in place but is developing one in 2009. If used, it will allow for better management decisions
• Park staff manages the maintenance of trails but does not has a specific trail crew
• The staff has done a trail assessment and are completing a comprehensive condition assessment to help establish trail improvement priorities both in capital and in operations and maintenance
• The available inspection time by supervisors is limited and in some cases lacking due to a high workload demand
• Clear maintenance objectives are needed for each maintenance zone for golf and each park in the system based on desired outcomes for visitors and golfers in maintaining the park or golf course area for aesthetics and natural resource sustainability
Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission

• The Park staff has to establish a lifecycle maintenance plan for buildings and amenities that can be built into daily operations and capital improvement needs for the future
• Environmental maintenance standards are in place for a few parks in the system and training of maintenance staff to follow and incorporate into daily work plans has just started
• A process to measure park and golf course maintenance success needs to be established for mowing height, weed level, greenness of grass, beach sand cleanliness, shrub height, restroom cleanliness, road sweeping, playground maintenance, shelter maintenance and trash management
• Park staff has very re‐active to maintenance needs and it is hard for them to stay focused on daily frequency schedules
• Park staff do not manage by weekly work plans, but tend to wait to be told what to do each day, which is not time effective. Through development of the Maintenance Management Plan work plans will be able to be developed on a weekly basis and costs tracked on a daily and weekly basis by task and asset
• Although improving, there are a limited amount of staff on site during the peak of visitation which is during late afternoons, evening, and weekends to support the volume of visitors
• Park design issues have made it difficult for staff to keep the park maintenance quality levels high, as it applies to trail mix, parking lots, sports fields, playgrounds, restrooms, shelters, and parking lots
• The majority of volunteer work time is not focused implementing an effective Resource Management Plan
• There is no maintenance endowment in place to support existing assets up to the quality they need
• The maintenance staff manages many operations from a defensive position. These include staffing levels, shop operations, equipment management, and park design
2.2 MAINTENANCE LEVELS, DEFINITION AND CHARACTERISTICS
Maintenance levels, definitions and characteristics are described by assets to be maintained, mainteance outcomes to be achieved based on frequency of tasks and characteristics. Most agencies manage assets based on level 1, 2, or 3 levels based on National Recreation and Parks established maintenance standards. These standards apply to tasks, frequency, time frame, job class and lifecycle. See Appendix 3.
In addition the following Maintenance Task Summary is organized by asset type, task, task type, task quantity and task unit, and task frequency.

CHAPTER THREE ‐ MAINTENANCE STANDARDS
Based on data collected during site visits, maintenance standards for Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission were developed in both qualitative and quantitative formats, organized by three Levels of Service. Maintenance standards can change by season and month depending on the type of park area level of use. Standards will be calculated by time and equipment needed to develop required operation budgets.

Maintenance Management Plan
67
6.2 MAINTENANCE STANDARDS WORKLOAD PROJECTIONS
Projected workload projections based on 2009 maintenance standards were prepared by applying labor hours per task with the associated maintenance standards. Labor costs, materials costs, equipment costs including fuel are detailed in the Appendix 2.
Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission
68
CHAPTER SEVEN ‐ CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDED ACTION PLAN
These maintenance standards will achieve the desired level of service as currently being employed for a substantially lower cost. Following are key recommendations supporting this plan:
7.1 KEY RECOMMENDATIONS
• Adopt the maintenance standards as presented in this plan and continue to address maintenance impacts as new areas and facilities are added
• Continue the line item budget coding system for the grounds maintenance activities and expenditures to allow accounting, tracking and monitoring
• Establish a process to continually explore alternative methods of funding to reduce operational costs and develop an action plan for implementation with the Park staff.
• Develop realistic annual goals and objectives to be included in the work program and serve as the baseline for performance measurements and evaluations. Budget maintenance costs based on standards to achieve the goals.
• Develop an annual process to review maintenance priorities, identify annual projects and improvements to be completed. This needs to be done with park staff and park funding supporters.
• All special event costs must be costed‐out prior to the event based on the size of the event. Partnership agreements need to be worked out in advance to pay for the direct costs that the event causes that is above routine maintenance and reimbursed back to the parks operational budget. These items would include overtime, extra staff, additional supply cost, etc.
• High use areas such as restrooms, trails, and campground areas need to have higher frequency levels of cleaning, repairs, and trash pick‐up than normal on peak times. Additional staff must be available in the late afternoon and weekends to accomplish this.
• On‐site intercept surveys of user satisfaction levels should be conducted at least 6 times a year.
• Redesign changes in turf, sports fields, and open field areas are needed to accommodate a more quality experience for users, and reduce maintenance costs.
• Individual zone management budgets must be developed based on agreed to standards minus volunteer support to achieve the expectations of the users.
• Staff salaries to overall budget need to be in the 65% range to allow for supplies to be purchased and the appropriate equipment used to maintain the park sites.
• The lifecycle maintenance plan for buildings and grounds amenities needs to be instituted as outlined in this Maintenance Management Plan along with a maintenance endowment.
Maintenance Management Plan
69
• A equipment lifecycle program must be developed and implemented for vehicles, mowers, and support equipment and budgeted for annually
• An environmental maintenance plan for the sensitive areas of the parks needs to be established and agreed upon by the park maintenance staff. The cost of this plan needs to be quantified and outlined clearly and budgeted for annually.
• Agreed to maintenance performance measures for each zone need to be agreed upon by staff, administration, and tracked and reported monthly.
• The Park Commission needs to invest in training for staff to understand maintenance standards, performance measures and tracking, lifecycle maintenance, volunteer management, and how to track cost of service for all tasks and services provided.
• A new updated volunteer maintenance plan is needed to recruit, retain, and recognize volunteers who work in maintenance.
• Work plans for staff need to be established along with results for each maintenance zone and staff member.
• The new work order system needs to be implemented to maximize the resources available and to keep costs within targeted ranges.
• Equipment efficiency and productivity needs to be established for each piece of equipment in the system.
• A program plan for each park in the system is needed to track what age segments are using the facilities and amenities and which age segments that are left out so that amenity changes can be made to sites to incorporate more amenities that will encourage their use.
• Yearly performance audits must occur against these recommendations and recorded.
• Seek to outsource wedding site maintenance at golf courses and have Oak Management pay for these improvements since they receive the majority of the revenue for the improvements
• Update the performance indicators and yearly standards to coincide with available operating dollars
7.2 PERFORMANCE MEASURE RECOMMENDATIONS
Following are recommended performance measures:
• Park maintenance standards established for each zone meet 90% consistency based on on‐site expectations
• Visitor comments on cleanliness of the site reflect 90% or greater satisfaction level
• The natural areas management meets established naturalist standards for the site at 90% compliance
Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission
70
• Volunteer support hours meet 95% of established hourly goals for each zone site area
• Repairs to the site for vandalism are repaired within 24 hours of recognition of the problem at 95% compliance
• Financial goals for the site from earned income is achieved at 95% of revenue goal
• Staff hours assigned to each established zone for maintenance meets 95% of the hours budgeted for an established area to achieve the level of maintenance standards desired
• Trail and sign maintenance standards are met by trail crews at 95% of established standards through on‐site inspections
• Visitor satisfaction levels meet 90% satisfaction of the trail care and campground care through on site user visitor surveys
• Trail repairs are completed within 48hours of recognition of the problem at 95% compliance
• Golf Course maintenance standards meet 90% of user satisfaction levels on a monthly basis
7.3 EARNED INCOME OPPORTUNITIES TO OFFSET OPERATIONAL COSTS
• Sponsorships for amenities need to be pursued for all parks, water parks and golf courses to help off‐set operational costs
• A Maintenance Endowment needs to be established for golf courses and the water parks
• Trail Sponsors by mile for all the trails needs to be pursued
• Create Park Banners in the park for each season to promote scheduled events
• Playground partnerships and sponsors need to be pursued to help develop signature playgrounds
• Create environmental signs that are sponsored and indicate what the park system is interpreting needs to be established
• Park benches should be sponsored
• Piers for fishing should be sponsored
• Natural areas should be sponsored
• Sign sponsors for golf holes should be pursued
• Warming hut sponsor should be pursued
• Landscape sponsor for golf courses should be considered
• Volunteer program sponsorships should be pursued
• Develop a sponsorship for a Junior Ranger program
• Seek sponsorship for environmental sponsorship of education programs
Maintenance Management Plan
71
7.3.1 LEASES • Lease development rights below or along trails for fiber optic and utility connections
• Concession leases at various parks should continue
• Portable concession leases for special events should be pursued
7.3.2 PRODUCT SPONSORS • Vehicles for park maintenance
• Irrigation sponsors
• Mower sponsors
• Tires for vehicles
• Grass seed sponsors
• Landscape design sponsors
• Signage sponsors
• Bicycles for trail ambassadors should be pursued
• Drink items such as water and cola products
7.3.3 PERMITS/FEES • Parking Fee and/or Permits should be considered
• Permits issued for special events spaced should be considered
• Rental of space to non‐for‐profits
Overall, this plan presents data necessary to support decision‐making with a high level of confidence. As staff is recruited and transition details are developed, baseline cost factors will change. These costs should be applied to the units of activities to gain additional insight into final costs.
