About Maple Street Correctional Center
Designed to create a better environment for incarcerated individuals and staff and to help reduce recidivism, the facility was the first correctional center built as part of California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation’s initiative to shift nonviolent, nonsexual offenders from overcrowded state prisons to county-run facilities. The center accommodates female and lower-risk male incarcerated individuals and is composed of two separate but interconnected buildings with a central administration area.

The facility’s architecture emphasizes safety, rehabilitation, and natural light. Instead of placing cells along the exterior walls as in most jails, the design features a curved glass façade with dayrooms located along windowed areas that open to individual living units. This layout improves supervision while allowing daylight to enter the building, helping the white-painted cells feel more open and spacious.

Each floor has a central core station supporting four housing units. These areas include classrooms, a computer lab, and multipurpose rooms to support educational and rehabilitative programming. Additional design elements include natural ventilation, a large rooftop recreation yard, artwork depicting scenes from nature, and a calming natural color palette.

An attached 88-bed transitional housing facility supports alternative sentencing programs such as day reporting, weekend programs, and other supervised custody arrangements, helping prepare individuals for reentry into the community.

The City of Menlo Park is seeking a Public Works Supervisor - Trees in the Maintenance Division of the Public Works department. The Maintenance Division provides many of the basic services that affect the daily lives of everyone who lives, works, visits and commutes within the City. The Maintenance Division provides support to all City departments and provides service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to address emergencies during non-working hours. The Maintenance Division is located in the City's Corporation Yard.

Under general direction, assists the City Arborist with overseeing the City’s tree maintenance, planting, inventory, risk management, and emergency response programs. Makes assessments of work needs and responds to citizens requesting city tree inspections and service.

Inspects quality and quantity of work and act as the City’s liaison between work crews and the public.

A position in this class is characterized by having a substantial background in arboriculture in order to make sound technical tree-care related decisions and strong communication skills in order to interact effectively with the public, work crews, and other City staff.

The City Arborist role, on the other hand, involves responsibilities such as overall program management, budgetary management, review of development projects and heritage tree protection plans, and the authority to issue heritage tree permits. The Public Works Supervisor – Trees role is distinguished from all other City maintenance classes through the specialized arboriculture knowledge required and its responsibility for all phases of work performed by tree maintenance crews.
