RECOMMENDED ACTION
Renew the contract with Graffiti Protective Coatings, Inc., for weekend and
holiday graffiti removal for a one-year period, in an annual amount not to
exceed $100,000.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Maintenance Division is responsible for weekday
graffiti removal. Staff determined that it was not cost-effective to have
City employees perform weekend and holiday graffiti removal. In 1999, in
response to requests generated through the City's graffiti hot-line, the
City began contracting for weekend and holiday graffiti removal to expand
the operation to seven days a week. Last year, the contractor removed
527,100 square feet of graffiti during 9,308 stops made by the weekend and
holiday graffiti abatement crews. Graffiti is removed in 24 hours or less,
based on requests received from City staff and from residents through the
City's graffiti hot-line telephone number.
On November 15, 2004, the City Council awarded a contract to Graffiti
Protective Coatings, Inc., for a one-year period with provision for four,
one-year renewals. The vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past
contract period and has agreed to renew the contract without an increase in
pricing. Staff recommends the second renewal of the contract.
