Project Monitoring and Evaluation: <br /> Our projected outcome is to reduce the number of complaints to the EPD and to City <br /> Management by 50 % in the first year of the program. Our goals will be revised and expanded <br /> annually. <br /> We intend to measure our results by documenting the number of complaints during the year <br /> preceding program implementation. This information will be compared to annual cumulative <br /> data gathered from quarterly reports compiled by our staff following program implementation. <br /> The Safe Parks Coordinator will be responsible for documentation of the project and the creation <br /> of a training manual sufficient to serve for replication. <br /> Budget: <br /> Please see attached budget sheets documenting program expenses. <br /> Summary: <br /> This project is expected to become a valuable civic model for reducing the cost of enforcement <br /> and encouraging compassionate social service intervention. It is an excellent and achievable <br /> option for reducing the number of complaints to be handled by EPD while simultaneously <br /> meeting the needs of the community. <br /> SVDP is both ready and capable of meeting the needs of city leaders, law enforcement, and the <br /> community to make our beautiful and numerous parks safer, cleaner and more accessible places <br /> for the entire population. <br />
