h. The Contractor will not be permitted to washout or clean hopper on any public street, alley or <br />City owned parking lot. <br />2. The street sweeper or any relief sweeper shall be equipped with the following: <br />a. Rotating amber dome lights. <br />b. DMV night traveling amber side, rear, and top lights or similar. <br />c. Dual side gutter brooms having no less than 5" long bristles. <br />d. A set of road trouble fluorescent triangles. <br />e. A radio or mobile phone. <br />D. STREET SWEEPING SPEED <br />1. Street sweepers shall be operated at speeds no greater than eight (8) miles per hour, as will be <br />indicated on tachograph charts, covered hereinafter. <br />2. Reviews by the City shall be made of all information and reports generated by the GPS tracking <br />system. <br />3. Indications of any day's sweeping exceeding 8 miles per hour shall result in: <br />a. Notification after the first two occurrences to the contractor that he is in non-compliance. <br />b. Reduction in monthly payment by one eighteenth for each day that sweeping is recorded in <br />excess of 8 miles per hour over a total of one hour per day. <br />E. QUALITY OF SWEEPING <br />The quality of sweeping shall be to the satisfaction of the Public Works Agency Executive Director or <br />designee. <br />The Contractor shall at all times use good sweeping practices as dictated by the highest standards <br />within the sweeping industry and will make adjustments to its equipment as necessary that will result in <br />clean streets with no debris trails left behind. On occasion and as deemed necessary by City, this will <br />require the complete width of the street, curb to curb, to be swept clean of debris. The Contractor must <br />exercise due care so as to prevent spilling, scattering, or dropping of debris during the sweeping activity <br />and shall immediately clean up any such spillage, dropping, or scattering. <br />Sweeping practices include, but are not limited to the following: (a) Sweeping speed shall be adjusted <br />to street conditions with a maximum speed of eight (8) miles per hour; and (b) patterned concrete <br />medians, intersections, and crosswalks shall be swept at a maximum speed of three (3) miles per hour. <br />Standards, schedules, and frequencies may be modified from time to time as deemed necessary by the <br />City to ensure the highest sweeping quality. Due to different street widths throughout the City, street <br />sweeping may require slower travel speed and/or multiple passes by the sweeper, in many cases, to <br />ensure curb-to-curb coverage of the street. Streets with raised medians (commercial and residential) <br />shall have their curb-gutter perimeter swept, including turnouts. Street grade striped medians shall be <br />swept in their entirety. All deposits within intersections shall be removed as part of the sweeping <br />operations. Each street shall be swept clean to the adjacent property line. Swept clean means minimal <br />debris residual or tailings. Any sweeper used must not blow debris onto private property. <br />Exhibit A - Next Page <br />25H-44
