DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency’s Fleet Services Division (Fleet) is responsible for the
acquisition, maintenance, repair, and replacement of vehicles, trucks, and maintenance
equipment. Several departments within the City require the use of utility boom trucks,
which allow staff to safely reach altitudes of up to 40 feet to perform various job functions.
These utility boom trucks are being procured on a shared interdepartmental model to
enable each specified department to effectively and efficiently meet their respective
service delivery needs. In this manner, Fleet can procure two utility boom trucks to serve
the needs of two Divisions of the Public Works Agency, as well as the Santa Ana Police
Department.
The Public Works Agency’s Water Resources Division maintains a wide network of tower-
and pole-mounted industrial control instrumentation and communications devices used
for monitoring and controlling the City’s water and sewer systems. These devices require
routine maintenance and repositioning. The Public Works Agency’s Traffic Engineering
Division maintains a vast network of traffic signal systems and street lights which require
routine maintenance. The Santa Ana Police Department operates a network of mounted
security systems that require routine maintenance and repositioning.
