Demonstration and training on PlanIT Geo's recommendation will be provided virtually to key staff and partners. 4. Typically, the Consulting Team recommends subscribing to PlanIT Geo’s TreePlotter INVENTORY software and work order management module. This online GIS mapping platform enables unlimited number of users and various account levels to view, add, edit, manage, and report on the tree and planting site inventory as well as canopy data and priority planting areas. Since 2012, there are over 300 TreePlotter™ clients which collectively contain over 4,000 individual user login accounts. Their GIS, Inventory, and Consulting teams also use TreePlotter daily to perform project tasks for communities, organizations, and consultants. Learn more at www.TreePlotter.com. Task 4.6 Key Performance Indicators Recommended key performance indicators (KPIs) will be developed for tracking progress on targets and goals, such as number of environmental justice priority community events and number of volunteer hours. 1. The Consulting Team will utilize information gathered from the previous tasks to complete a comprehensive audit of the City’s urban forest, the programs that manage it, and the community that shapes and benefits from it. The U.S. Forest Service’s Urban Forest Audit System (“Urban Forest Audit” or “Audit”) will be used to effectively rank San Leandro’s urban forest management and establish baseline metrics from which progress can be measured and evaluated. The Urban Forest Audit consists of 11 categories and within each category is a series of supporting elements equating to 130 unique aspects that are specifically evaluated for San Leandro. The interactive worksheet provides the indicators for improving on the Audit spectrum. In addition, the Consulting Team will utilize the Criteria and Indicators for Strategic Urban Forest Planning and Management (Kenney, et al. 2011), the Vibrant Cities Lab’s Community Assessment and Goal- Setting Tool, and the SFI Urban and Community Forestry Sustainability Standard to develop the key performance indicators for the Trees Master Plan. 2. Draft KPIs will be developed in an interactive worksheet that can be sorted and filtered based on the respective action and implementation schedule. 3. A review meeting (remote) with the City will identify necessary changes and the Consulting Team will prepare a final worksheet of KPIs that will be integrated into the final Trees Master Plan. Trees Master Plan Development From the previous planning tasks and the final recommendations prepared, the Consulting Team will draft the Trees Master Plan using the following approach: 1. The Internal Work Plan will be finalized that serves as a narrative to the Trees Master Plan. This document includes decisions made in the planning process such as intended audiences, format and styling, Plan sections and outline, among other aspects of the Plan. 2. The Trees Master Plan outline will be finalized based on the scope of work in the City’s RFP and the needs identified in the planning process according to the Internal Work Plan. 3. Draft #1 of the Plan will be prepared and shared with the City and key stakeholders for review. 4. A remote meeting will be held to discuss the draft and necessary revisions that the City will compile for the Consulting Team. 5. Draft #2 will be prepared based on the necessary edits discussed. 6. An optional public comment period for the Plan will gather feedback on the draft.
