RECOMMENDED ACTION
Renew the contract with Orange County Striping Service, Inc. for traffic
line painting and traffic sign maintenance for a one-year period in an
annual amount not to exceed $498,275.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Street Maintenance Division is responsible for
maintaining the streets of Santa Ana. In order to do so, a contract for
annual traffic line painting and traffic sign maintenance is required.
Contract services include the installation and removal of traffic stripes,
pavement markings, curb markings and raised pavement markers. In addition,
the contract will provide for the installation and removal or relocation of
traffic signs.
On September 20, 2004, the City Council awarded a contract to Orange County
Striping Service, Inc. for a one-year period, with provision for three,
one-year renewals. The vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past
contract period and has agreed to renew the contract without an increase in
pricing. Staff conducted a cost benefit analysis of utilizing City staff
to provide traffic line painting and traffic sign maintenance services.
Staff estimates that the proposal from Orange County Striping Service Inc.
is still approximately 33 percent more cost effective than providing the
same services in house. As a result, staff recommends the second renewal
of the contract.
