MAYOR: <br />GARY TAYLOR <br />MAYOR PRO TEM <br />STEVEN tY <br />COUNCIL MEMBERS: <br />SANDRA ARMENTA <br />MARGARET CLARK <br />POLLY LOW <br />March 23, 2011 <br />To Whom It May Concern, <br />i cy Rosemead <br />8838 E. VALLEY BOULEVARD • P.O. BOX 399 <br />ROSEMEAD, CALIFORNIA 91770 <br />TELEPHONE (626) 569-2100 <br />FAX (626) 307-9218 <br />Last year, the City of Rosemead approved a 5-year agreement with Athens <br />Services to provide citywide street sweeping services. Since starting these <br />services, the City has been very satisfied with the quality of these services as <br />well as the professionalism demonstrated by Athens' team and approach to <br />working in the community. <br />As part of the agreement, Athens sweeps residential areas on a weekly basis <br />and commercial areas twice weekly. Athens also utilizes clean fuel equipment in <br />street sweeping services, helping to meet air quality requirements and also <br />demonstrate the City's commitment to environmental responsibility. During its <br />tenure in Rosemead, Athens has also been a strong community partner, <br />participating in the City's annual Public Works Week events, City special events, <br />and local community affairs. <br />It should be noted that Athens also provides extremely competitive rates for <br />street sweeping services. These rates have resulted in significant savings in <br />operations and maintenance costs for the City. <br />The City looks forward to a long-lasting, productive working relationship with <br />Athens Services. I would strongly recommend them for street sweeping <br />services. <br />Please feel free to contact me at (626) 569-2118, if I can be of further assistance. <br />Sincerely, <br />CHRIS MARCARELLO <br />Director of Public Works <br />City of Rosemead <br />25H-80
