In 1999, requests generated through the City's graffiti <br />hot line indicated a need to expand the operation to seven days a week. <br />Staff determined that it was not cost-effective to have City employees <br />perform weekend and holiday graffiti removal and the City began contracting <br />for this service. Last year, the contractor removed 550,263 square feet of <br />graffiti during 12,667 stops made by the weekend and holiday graffiti <br />abatement crews. Graffiti is removed in 24 hours or less, based on <br />requests received from City staff and from residents through the City's <br />graffiti hot-line telephone number. <br /> <br />On November 15, 2004, the City Council awarded a contract to Graffiti <br />Protective Coatings, Inc., for a one-year period, with provision for four, <br />one-year renewals. The vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past <br />contract period and has agreed to renew the contract without an increase in <br />pricing. Staff recommends the third renewal of the contract. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />Funds are available <br />68-634-6291) <br />" <br />I <br /> <br />in <br /> <br />the Sanitary Fund Graffiti Abatement account (no. <br /> <br /> <br />v2 <br /> <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br /> <br />J mes G.
