Title
Consider and take action to increase the existing contract amount with Southwest Signal Supply, Inc. by $60,000, for an annual maintenance and emergency maintenance of the traffic signals and advance school zone flashers, for a total contract amount of $114,795.98 (Director of Finance)
Background:
Approval of this item will increase the existing contract authorization for traffic signals supplies and maintenance. On March 11, 2014 the City Council approved award of Bid #14-008 to Southwest Signal Supply, Inc. for $54,795.98 for the two year period ending February 28, 2016. Due to an influx of problems relating to traffic control devices needing repair and/or replacement the department is requesting additional funds for the remainder of the contract period.
The contractor is responsible for conducting annual maintenance on all of the City’s traffic signals. This maintenance insures that the traffic signals function properly and that broken equipment is replaced. Emergency maintenance is required for knock downs and repairs that are currently beyond the scope of City staff. The services requested are being provided through February 28, 2016 and may be renewed for up to two (2) additional one (1) year periods.
