Authorization was given for Yraffic signal modifications, Carlsbad Boulevard at Elm and Grand, as recommended by the City Engineer and the Mayor to execute contract. Authorization was given for transfer of funds in the amount of $3,’000 from Account #2107 to .2-2107-4 .. .. Sept. 15, 1970 SUBJECT: Traffic Signal Modifications - Carlsbad Blvd. at Elm Ave. and Grand Ave. - Contract 1002 Discussion: Bids for Contract 1002 were scheduled to be received in the office of the City Clerk August 11. No bids were received. The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the local and con- struction industry newspapers. Bid packages were mailed to con- tractors which normally submit proposals for this type of work. Eleven sets of plans and specifications were issued. In view of this lack of interest on the part of the signal con- tractors, we sent a bid package to the contractor which performs the normal maintenance of our traffic signals and requested that he submit a proposal to modify the signals on a time and material basis with a guaranteed maximum charge. I believe this will be in the best interests of the City as the signals are nearly 30 years old and it is very dif- ficult to determine the precise amount of work which will be required. It will allow us to take advantage of a cost savings from deletion of any work which may not need to be done to the extent now anticipated and conversely will permit us to perform maintenance on deficiencies discovered during the course of the work. Traffic Signal Maintenance Company, Inc. has estimated the work, including all anticipated maintenance, to be accomplished for a maximum of $11,000. Funds in the amount of $8,000 are included in the current budget for construction- The budget also contains $62,225 of unappropriated Gas Tax reserves.
