FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
t DATE: June 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Authorize Issuance of Purchase Order to Traffic Limited for Traffic Striping as Necessary During the
1996-97 Fiscal Year
Project No.: 0672-6U2568
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. Recommended Action:
AUTHORIZE the issuance of a purchase order in an amount not to exceed $60,000 to Traffic Limited of
Lodi, California for traffic striping as necessary during the 1996-97 fiscal year.
H. Financial Impact:
Road funds in the amount of$60,000 are available for this planned activity.
M. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
It is the practice of the Public Works Department to maintain warranted traffic delineation at all times and
to replace traffic striping obscured by natural or manmade activities within ten working days. Vendor
furnished traffic striping is often required when the Department's traffic striping capability is reduced due to
equipment breakdown or when the required amount of striping exceeds the Department's production capacity
during the annual pavement surface treatment program. A blanket purchase order has historically been
established as a contingency to furnish traffic striping on an as needed basis. The subject authorization will
continue this practice.

The General Services Department's Purchasing Division solicited bids from 17 vendors for an assumed
quantity of traffic striping. Only one vendor responded to the solicitation with a bid in the amount of
$42,952.80.

The safety of the travelling public requires the timely placement and replacement of traffic stripes. without
vendor furnished striping the response time for striping replacement may increase.
