RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Graffiti Protective Coatings, Inc. for
graffiti removal services for a three-year term beginning November 1, 2020 to October 31, 2023,
in an annual amount of $1,280,000 with an $80,000 contingency, with provisions for five, one-year
extensions exercisable by the City Manager, for a total amount not to exceed $10,880,000 for the
eight -year maximum term, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and
City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency, Maintenance Services Division is responsible for citywide graffiti
removal from public structures, the visible right-of-way and park facilities, and performs graffiti
removal services 365 days a year. Graffiti removal services have been contracted since 2011 and
provide removal at nearly 130,000 sites annually, with an average response time of 24 hours or
less.
Since 2014, the City has contracted Graffiti Protective Coatings, Inc. (GPC) to provide these
services with the current agreement expiring on October 31, 2020. Annually, GPC removes graffiti
from approximately 130,000 sites, of which 103,000 removals are proactive and 27,000 are in
response to public service requests.
The Santa Ana Municipal Code (Section 2-807.d Non -Bid Purchases) allows contracts to be
exempted from competitive bidding through an open market purchase where vendors have been
awarded the same type of purchase contract by another public agency after a competitive bidding
process. The City of Long Beach, California awarded a contract for graffiti removal, whose
25C-1
Agreement with Graffiti Protective Coatings, Inc.
July 21, 2020
Page 2
specifications meet the City's requirements, to Graffiti Protective Coatings, Inc. after a formal
competitive bidding process in 2016 (Exhibit 1). The Public Works Agency would like to utilize the
SAMC provision to award a contract to GPC (Exhibit 2) in the same amount as the City of Long
Beach contract.
GPC has consistently proven it can provide faster, higher quality service than its competitors by
incorporating proprietary and innovative techniques in its operation. Services include 100 percent
color matching and additional staffing resources during peak periods or emergency events such
as the civil demonstrations in June 2020 where GPC provided five additional staff over several
days at no extra charge to the City to remove several hundred graffiti items. This demonstrates
their responsiveness and willingness to work with the City to provide a high level of service to the
community. GPC also facilitates graffiti crime analysis and evidence gathering for Police
Department investigations.
GPC will provide the best quality service at a minimum cost to the City. For reference, the table
below provides the contract amounts of comparable cities, the total number of sites abated and the
cost to abate per site.

In the event that this action is not approved, a Request for Proposals (RFP) will be issued, requiring
approximately three months to process, with a service start date goal of November 1, 2020. This
option is not recommended due to the possible negative impact in the provision and quality of
service by a company not familiar with the unique graffiti removal needs of the City.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.

WHEREAS, City requires specialized services requiring unique skills to be
performed in connection with graffiti removal services ("Project"); and

of services performed and covered by the invoice, including a brief statement of any
Project problems and potential causes of delay in performance, and listing those
services that are projected for performance by Contractor during the next invoice
cycle. Where billing is done and payment is made on an hourly basis, the parties
acknowledge that this arrangement is either customary practice for Contractor's
profession, industry or business, or is necessary to satisfy audit and legal

C. Contractor represents that Contractor has obtained all
necessary information on conditions and circumstances that may affect its
performance and has conducted site visits, if necessary.
D. By executing this Agreement, Contractor warrants that

or will be fully acquainted with the conditions there existing, prior to commencement
of services set forth in this Agreement. Should Contractor discover any latent or
unknown conditions that will materially affect the performance of the services set
forth in this Agreement, Contractor must immediately inform the City of that fact and
may not proceed except at Contractor's risk until written instructions are received
from the City.
E. Contractor must adopt reasonable methods during the life of
the Agreement to furnish continuous protection to the work, and the equipment,

so to Contractor without restrictions on further disclosure; or (d) must be disclosed pursuant
to subpoena or court order.
13. ADDITIONAL SERVICES. The City has the right at any time during
the performance of the services, without invalidating this Agreement, to order extra work
beyond that specified in the RFP or make changes by altering, adding to or deducting from
the work. No extra work may be undertaken unless a written order is first given by the City,
incorporating any adjustment in the Agreement Sum, or the time to perform this Agreement.
Any increase in compensation of ten percent (10%) or less of the Agreement Sum, or in
the time to perform of One Hundred Eighty (180) days or less, may be approved by the
City Representative. Any greater increases, taken either separately or cumulatively, must
be approved by the City Council. It is expressly understood by Contractor that the
provisions of this paragraph do not apply to services specifically set forth in the RFP or
reasonably contemplated in the RFP. Contractor acknowledges that it accepts the risk that
the services to be provided pursuant to the RFP may be more costly or time consuming
than Contractor anticipates and that Contractor will not be entitled to additional
compensation for the services set forth in the RFP.
14. RETENTION OF FUNDS. Contractor authorizes the City to deduct
from any amount payable to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) any
amounts the payment of which may be in dispute or that are necessary to compensate the
City for any losses, costs, liabilities or damages suffered by the City, and all amounts for
which the City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor's acts or omissions in
performing or failing to perform Contractor's obligations under this Agreement. In the event
that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by
Contractor, or any indebtedness exists that appears to be the basis for a claim of lien, the
City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of the
withholding, an amount sufficient to cover the claim. The failure of the City to exercise the
right to deduct or to withhold will not, however, affect the obligations of Contractor to insure,
indemnify and protect the City as elsewhere provided in this Agreement.
