AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Managerto Execute Purchase Orderwith
Weco Industries, Inc., of Vacaville, for Purchase of Closed Circuit Television
Inspection Equipment ($22,257)
MEETING DATE: November 17,2010
PREPARED BY: PublicWorks Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Managerto execute purchase
order with Weco Industries, Inc., of Vacaville, for the purchase of
closed circuit television inspection equipment in the amount of
$22,257.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Water/Wastewater Division utilizes a main line camera and
transporter for closed circuit television (CCTV) inspection of sewers
and storm drains. The current main line transporterand camera
were purchased in November2000.
The current main line transporter and camera will not fit into some manholes and wastewater mains that
have been relined, thereby reducing the inside diameter of the pipelines by approximately half an inch. On
smaller mains, this reduction is enough to impede the insertion of the existing transporter and camera
system, making condition assessments difficult, if not impossible. The replacement equipment is smaller,
allowing for improved access to smaller wastewater mains, and contains new technology that improves
picture quality and data collection. This improved system enhances the City's ability to comply with the
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan.
Three bids were received from vendors specializing in this type of equipment. Weco Industries submitted
the lowest responsive bid. Staff recommends Council authorize the City Managerto execute a purchase
order with Weco Industries for the purchase of the CCTV inspection equipment in the amount of
$22,256.77.
FISCAL IMPACT: The newer, improved CCTV system enhances operational efficiency related
to collection system condition assessment required by the City's Sanitary
Sewer Management Plan.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: 2010/11 Wastewater Capital Outlay (1711201): $22,256.77
