FILE NUMBER
Award a contract to Geodimeter Southwest, Inc. for the purchase of a
total station surveying system in the amount of $38,156.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Construction Engineering Division uses a total
station surveying system to electronically measure and record
engineering data for street, sewer, and storm drain improvements. The
current equipment was purchased in 1989 and a lack of replacement parts
has made the unit obsolete. Replacing the unit will allow City survey
crews to operate more efficiently.
The notice inviting bids was advertised on November 29, 2007 and bids
