The street <br />sweepers maintain over 60,000 miles of City streets annually. The brooms <br />on the sweepers used for street maintenance need periodic rewrapping to <br />maintain effectiveness. <br /> <br />On February 22, 2005, the City Council awarded an agreement to American <br />Rotary Broom Co., Inc, for a one-year period that was amended through June <br />30, 2006. Due to constant fluctuations in the price of steel and plastic <br />required for rewrapping of the sweeper brooms, added to the increasing fuel <br />costs, the agreement amendment will provide for price adj ustments upon <br />mutual consent while bids are solicited for a long term contract. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />Funds are <br />Maintenance <br />6281) <br /> <br />available <br />& Repair <br /> <br />in the <br />Machinery <br /> <br />Equipment Maintenance Garage <br />& Equipment account (account <br /> <br />Operations <br />no . 75- III - <br /> <br />1~~N'~l."0 \.~ ~ <br />h~Francisco Gutierrez <br />, Executive Director <br />Finance and Management Services <br /> <br />FG/KM/03-007AGR.2:uc <br /> <br />Agency t" <br /> <br />2SC:1 <br />
