Body
FUNDING SOURCE:
HURF Fund
PURPOSE:
Approve Amendment No. 2 to Services Contract for Maintenance Street Sweeping in accordance with City Code Section 3.10.020.12. (Project SM340C)
BACKGROUND:
Lake Havasu City historically maintained a fleet of three pickup sweepers and seven kick (push) brooms for emergency, storm, and routine street maintenance sweeping. As part of the City’s continued evaluation of practices and Fleet size, the City will be reducing the sweeper fleet to one pickup sweeper and two kick (push) brooms. Reducing the Fleet of brooms/sweepers will reduce replacement costs for the community by nearly $900,000.
At the October 14, 2014, City Council Meeting, the initial contract was awarded. The entire City was swept within a couple of weeks in October and November of 2014, May and October of 2015 and May of 2016. Staff was very happy with the results and proposes sweeping in October of 2016 and May of 2017.
The cost for two sweeps would be $119,876 in FY 16-17.
COMMUNITY IMPACT:
By outsourcing, the City maximizes the efficiency and effectiveness of the community’s resources allocated to roadway maintenance. Street sweeping improves safety, the environment, and the appearance of the community’s roadways. It also prevents surface damage by abrasion due to traffic. The project will sweep the entire community, including City parking lots, approximately 1,303 lane miles.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Appropriations are available in the FY 16-17 Street Repair Contractual Services Account Number 221.5110.403.4306 and 110-3220-401-5212 Special Project Supplies to perform the work.
