CITY MANAGER' SREPORT
OCTOBER 14, 2024 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
ITEM: APPROVE PURCHASE OF SWARCO MCCAIN, INC. AND
ITERIS, INC. PRODUCTS FOR CITY- WIDE TRAFFIC

SYSTEMS AND SAFETY UPGRADES PROJECT, CIP PS
23- 01 AND APPROVE BUDGET AMENDMENT
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution to Approve the Purchase of Swarco McCain Inc. and Iteris, Inc. Products for the City -
Wide Traffic Systems and Safety Upgrades Project,
CIP PS 23- 01 and Approve Budget Amendment
SUMMARY:

On July 11, 2022, Council approved the creation of Capital Improvement Project ( CIP) PS 23- 01 for the City -Wide Traffic Systems and Safety Upgrades Project. This project aims to maintain and improve the reliability, safety, and functionality of various traffic control devices throughout the City. Two traffic signals on Lathrop Road and two on Louise Avenue, located at the Interstate 5 Interchanges, are operated by Caltrans.

Since these Caltrans Signals directly impact the reliability and functionality of the City' straffic network, staff has been working with Caltrans to obtain approval for the City to take over their operation and maintenance.

Before assuming responsibility, the Caltrans Signals will need to be retrofitted with City Standard equipment to ensure reliability and consistency with all other City traffic signals. Staff has received quotes from Swarco McCain, Inc. for six Flex ATC Traffic Signal Controllers and from Iteris, Inc. for two Vantage Next CCUs, both of which include all necessary components for installation ( see Attachment " B"). Additionally, approximately $ 120, 00is needed for miscellaneous equipment, such as surveillance cameras, license plate readers, radios for communication, and communication switches.

Staff requests that Council approve the purchase from Swarco and Iteris for a total cost of $ 65, 813. 15. Staff also requests approval for a budget amendment in the amount of $ 200, 00 from the General Fund Street Reserves ( 1010). The remaining funds after the purchase of the controllers will be used for other items to further advance the project goals of CIP PS 23- 01.

BACKGROUND:

On July 11, 2022, Council approved the creation of CIP PS 23- 01 for City -Wide Traffic Systems and Safety Upgrades. These upgrades include the replacement of obsolete traffic controllers, the installation of video and radar detection systems, communication upgrades, and safety enhancements such as guard rails, signs, striping, and bicycle facilities. A key component of this project is to enhance traffic signal technology throughout the City to promote mobility, safety, and visibility.

PRODUCTS FOR CITY- WIDE TRAFFIC SYSTEMS AND SAFETY UPGRADES PROJECT, CIP PS 23- 01 AND APPROVE BUDGET AMENDMENT
The two traffic signals on Lathrop Road and two on Louise Avenue, operated by Caltrans, directly affect the reliability and functionality of the City' s traffic network.

Therefore, staff is working with Caltrans to secure approval for the City to take over the operation and maintenance of these signals.

City Standards require new signal installations to be equipped with a Flex ATC Controller and an Iteris Next Vector detection system. Currently, the Caltrans Signals use loop detection and older model controllers, such as the McCain 2070E Controller, which are less reliable and lack the connectivity and functionality of the Flex ATC Controller. These older models will also be unsupported by the manufacturer in the near future. Additionally, the Caltrans Signals require installation of surveillance cameras, license plate readers, and network components.

The installation of the Flex ATC Controllers, Iteris Next Vector detection system, and other miscellaneous equipment will ensure that all traffic signals in the City have uniform capabilities, reliability, and the ability to connect through the City' s network for remote timing, maintenance, alerts, data, and visibility.

Staff has received quotes from Swarco for six Flex ATC Traffic Signal Controllers and from Iteris for two Vantage Next CCUs, both of which include all necessary components for installation ( see Attachment " B"). As these products are proprietary, Swarco and Iteris have provided Sole Source Documentation ( included as Attachment C"). The miscellaneous equipment needed totals approximately $ 120, 00.

Staff requests that Council approve the purchase from Swarco and Iteris for a total cost of $ 65, 813. 15. Staff also requests approval for a budget amendment in the amount of $ 200, 00 from the General Fund Street Reserves ( 1010). The remaining funds after the purchase of the controllers will be utilized for other products to advance the project goals of CIP PS 23- 01.

RECOMMENDATION:

A key component of the City -Wide Traffic Systems and Safety Upgrade Project is to enhance the traffic signal technology throughout the City, which will improve traffic flow and level of service.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The purchase of the Swarco and Iteris products listed in Attachment " B" has a cost of $ 65, 813. 15. Staff request Council also approve a budget amendment in the amount of $200, 00 from the General Fund Street Repair Reserves ( 1010):
