FILE NUMBER
Renew the contract with Orange County Striping Service, Inc., for roadway
striping and markings and traffic sign maintenance for a one-year period in
an annual amount not to exceed $490,275.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Roadway Marking and Signs Section manages
approximately 400 miles of streets within the city of Santa Ana. Contracts
are required for the installation and removal of traffic stripes, pavement
markings, curb markings and raised pavement markers, as well as the
installation, removal or relocation of traffic signs. To minimize impact on
traffic flow, roadway striping and sign maintenance is conducted at night.
On November 17, 2008 the City Council awarded a contract to Orange County
Striping Service, Inc., for a one-year period, with provision for three
one-year renewals. In the last year, crews have restriped 2,550,000 linear
feet of roadway, repainted 264,000 linear feet of crosswalks and 19,000
legends/markings, and installed or replaced 1,000 signs and signposts.
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 first renewal of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the Public Works Roadway Markings and Signs account
(no. 01117625-62300).
