AGENDA TITLE: Adopt resolution awarding the purchase of steel streetlight standards
($41,137.93 )(EUD)
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2004
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution awarding the bid for the
purchase of 65 galvanized steel streetlight poles to the low bidder,
Wille Electric Supply Company, Stockton, in the amount of
$41,137.93.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On April 7, 2004, the City Council approved specifications and
authorized advertisement for bids for purchase of up to 100
galvanized steel streetlight standards.
The Electric Utility Department's Engineering Division has issued work orders to replace 65 poles as part
of a 5 -year program of replacement of streetlight poles which are found during inspections to be
structurally below standard. (The Department's 2003-2005 budget calls for replacement of a total of 100
poles during the budget's two-year term, but because of storage space limitations staff must recommend
buying the required poles as work is scheduled. Further, because of volatility in steel prices, suppliers
are not accepting orders for deferred deliveries).
The following bids for 65 steel standards were received, and opened on April 20, 2004:
Wille Electric Supply, Stockton
$41,137.93
General Pacific, Portland, OR
$43,166.21
All -Phase Electric, Stockton
$43,353.21
