CITY MANAGER
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the attached agreement with
Macadee Construction, Inc. to rewire the streetlight system on Broadway and Sycamore Street for
an amount not to exceed $172,000, subject to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City
Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The street lighting systems on Broadway and Sycamore Street are high voltage, low amperage
systems that are antiquated and obsolete. The system is a single-wire series that has been a
constant source of maintenance problems. This system uses a one-of-a-kind incandescent lamp
that the manufacturer has stopped producing. The City has a small supply of replacement lamps
and there are no more available on the market. This creates an urgent need to install modern
street light fixtures.
To install more updated fixtures, the system needs to be rewired to enable a multiple wire 240-volt
system. The intent is to use the existing conduit, remove the obsolete series-type wire and install
new wires with new fixtures, ballasts, and lamps.
On February 9, 2012, Requests for Proposals were mailed to 27 electrical contractors, ten of
which are based in Santa Ana. A total of 7 proposals were received on March 1, 2012, none from
Santa Ana contractors. The proposals were evaluated by a panel comprised of representatives
from the Public Works Agency using the following criteria: organizational credentials, experience,
work plan, and pricing. The ratings for the 7 respondents are as follows:

SCOPE OF SERVICES
This Request for Proposal calls for the removal and replacement of the existing street light cable
on Broadway between 17`n Street and Santa Clara Street and on Sycamore Street between Russell
Street and Borchard Street. This project will require replacing all the cable in the entire system
with three new #8 THW wires. The 46 existing poles are required to be rewired with new #12
THW wire, the existing fixtures removed and salvaged, replaced with new 150W high pressure
sodium fixtures and lamps (Broadway, double fixture king poles) or 70W metal halide fixtures
and lamps (Sycamore, single fixture concrete poles). The new fixtures may need minor
modifications to fit existing pole configurations. Costs for modification shall be included in the
lump sum proposal amount. Three new service pedestals will be furnished and installed by the
Proposer. Proposer shall locate and intercept existing conduit adjacent to service pedestal and
install conduits and pull box adjacent to pedestal. All costs for conduit work, including hardscape
replacement, to connect to service pedestal shall be included in lump sum costs. New wire shall
be placed into and connected properly in service pedestal. All work, equipment, labor and
materials necessary to provide complete functioning system shall be included in the Proposal
pricing. Existing globes shall be protected, cleaned and reused.
The existing streetlight systems were installed in the early 1920's and are obsolete. The exact
condition and location of the underground conduit is unknown although the existing cable was
installed 10 years ago. The City expects the existing cable to be used to pull in the new wire. Pre-
lubrication of the conduits may be necessary. The City does not anticipate that much of the
existing conduit will need to be repaired. All costs for conduit repair excluding materials will be
included in the costs proposed for hourly work. The Proposer may need to excavate and access
and disconnect the existing conduit sweeps at the pole foundations to properly pull the new wire.
All costs for excavation, including hardscape replacement and conduit disconnect/reconnect shall
be included in the lump sum price.
