TOPIC: Bus Stop Furniture Purchase
AGENDA TITLE
Award a Purchase Order to Tolar Manufacturing in the Amount of $514,764 for Bus
Benches, Trash Containers and Advertising Kiosks (General Fund)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize a one-time purchase and payment of purchase order to Tolar Manufacturing
for 129 bus benches, 129 trash containers, and 30 advertising kiosks, for a total amount
not to exceed $514,764, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City
Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency is responsible for the acquisition, maintenance, repair, and
replacement of bus stop furniture, including shelters, benches and trash containers. The
bus stop benches and trash containers located at stops without shelters was purchased
in 2000, and is suffering from metal fatigue. Many benches have been removed, as they
are unrepairable. Given that the City of Santa Ana has one of the highest ridership counts
in the County of Orange, it is imperative that benches are replaced and maintained to
accommodate the needs of the community.
The City Council approved the initial purchase of replacement furniture in FY 2019-20,
and a second purchase in FY 2020-21. In total, the first two phases include the
replacement of 293 benches and 314 trash containers.
This contract award will provide an additional 129 benches and 129 trash containers, in
addition to 30 advertising kiosks, for deployment throughout the City. The installation will
first be prioritized based on the condition of the existing furniture at each bus stop, with a
focus on replacing furniture that shows metal fatigue. Secondly, furniture in locations
where either the bench or trash container are missing will be replaced. Any existing
furniture in those locations will be replaced as well. The remaining furniture, if any, will
be distributed equally between City wards.
Due to the unique style of the shelter furniture (Exhibit 1), this contract will be awarded
through an exception to the Competitive Bidding Process. The City’s current bus shelter
and furniture manufacturer, Tolar Manufacturing, was selected to supply the additional

and responsive to the City’s requirements (Exhibit 2).
