Ontario, CA Quality Fence Co Inc. Paramount, CA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION Permanent and temporary fencing is used to ensure public safety and reduce liability around City -owned properties as needed. Such fencing is rented or permanently installed and can be initiated within 24 hours when necessary to provide immediate public safety. Various City departments require the services of fencing contractors, on an on -call as needed basis, to secure City -owned properties such as community buildings, parks, and vacant lots. Use of these services is funded by existing departmental operating budgets. The proposed contracts will provide Staff with access to vendors that install both temporary chain -link fencing on a rental basis and permanently installed chain -link, tubular steel, and 4-D Panel fencing. Chain -link fencing is the most common type of fencing and least expensive to install. However, it is more susceptible to vandalism and its use is most common for temporary conditions such as vacant lots. 4-D panel fencing provides greater security and resistance to vandalism than chain -link fencing but is a costlier option. 4-D panel fencing is typically installed on a permanent basis where there are greater vandalism and security concerns, such as adjacent to flood control channels.
