<br />32 Maintenance and Operations Standards (Standard 7.5): Accredited agencies <br />33 must develop, implement, and review maintenance standards to ensure that parks <br />34 and facilities are maintained at a high level to meet the community's needs. <br />35 <br />36 These are just a few of the many rigorous standards that the department has demonstrated <br />37 compliance with as part of its reaccreditation. Reaccreditation is required every five years <br />38 to ensure continuous improvement and ongoing compliance with accreditation standards. <br />39 The reaccreditation process takes roughly one year and includes a written self-assessment, <br />40 and an audit (now conducted virtually) by three reviewers who are parks and recreation <br />41 professionals in other cities. Roseville met all 154 standards during this year's <br />42 reaccreditation process. <br />43 <br />44 Staff will briefly share a video that provides an overview of how accreditation benefits our <br />45 community, and recognize the effort that Parks and Recreation staff put into their sixth <br />46 reaccreditation. <br />47 <br />48 Policy Objectives <br />49 <br />50 <br />51 Equity Impact Summary <br />52 Accreditation through CAPRA strengthens equity for historically underrepresented <br />53 populations by setting standards that promote inclusivity and fairness in parks and <br />54 recreation services. The accreditation process requires agencies to engage in Community <br />55 Involvement (Standard 2.9), ADA Transition Planning (standard 2.10), Outreach to <br />56 Diverse Underserved Populations (Standard 6.3.1), and more. This approach helps <br />57 eliminate barriers to participation and ensures that programs and facilities are welcoming <br />58 and reflective of the entire community. <br />59 <br />60 Budget Implications <br />61 The CAPRA program requires accredited agencies to adopt best practices related to official <br />62 financial management (Standard 5.2) and budget management (several standards). <br />63 <br />64 Staff Recommendations <br />65 Receive a brief presentation on the CAPRA accreditation program, highlighting the <br />66 department’s achievements and the benefits of continued accreditation to the community. <br />67 <br />68 Requested Council Action <br />69 Receive a brief presentation on the CAPRA accreditation program, highlighting the <br />70 department’s achievements and the benefits of continued accreditation to the community. <br />71 <br />72 <br />Matthew L.
