CITY MANAGER CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER RECOMMENDED ACTION Award a contract to Jam Services, Inc., under the County of Sacramento's contract, for the purchase of traffic signal LED lamps in the amount of $130,809. DISCUSSION The California Energy Commission recently adopted energy efficiency standards that require the power consumption of all traffic signal lamps to be equal to or less than 25 watts. The red and green traffic signals in the City were converted to energy efficient LED lamps in 2001. The eight inch yellow traffic signals and pedestrian signals are still using regular lamps, with power consumptions of 65 and 28 watts. The City will reduce energy costs by an estimated $5,000 per year, after the signals are converted to LED lamps. The County of Sacramento's contract with Jam Services, Inc. was awarded as a result of open, competitive bidding, and allows other governmental agencies to purchase the traffic signal LED lamps as specified, and at the same price. 221-1 CS 383 Contract Award for (Spec.
