Main Street decorative streetlights from PCH to Ocean, including the Ocean @ Main traffic signal poles.
Check # 13036 Sakaida Nursery Inc $991.30
Where was this Ficus tree planted?
This was installed for screening along the PD fence line.
Item F. Tennis Center Roof Repair Project:
Was the roof of the “Activity Room” (former gym) already re-done a couple of years ago?
There was a small localized repair over the locker room about 6 years ago over the skylights.
The “old gym” by the easterly side of the tennis courts is not being re-roofed.
Item G. Pier Base Evaluations:
Will work identified in addition to rehab of the pier base be listed as separate tasks, making it easier for
us to see potential for phasing work and grant opportunities?
Yes, identified work items will be itemized and group accordingly.
Item H. Arterial Street Resurfacing Program Project:
Resurfacing of Bolsa Avenue will be completed all the way from PCH to Balboa?
The Bolsa Avenue pavement limit was established north of PCH to join with Caltrans’ PCH pavement
resurfacing project pavement limits (their work includes paving a small portion of Bolsa Avenue adjacent
to PCH intersection). The PCH Project is scheduled to start in the near future.
Item J. Citywide Street Sweeping Services:
Is the increased cost of this contract really a 38% increase from the previous contract? Yes Is a budget
amendment necessary or could the increased amount be offset by the Waste Management Act Fund?
The City’s current street sweeper is able to divert a portion of the waste they collect away from the
landfill (also known as green waste) and thus 25% of the existing contract amount is charged to Fund
005. Fund 005 otherwise known as the Waste Management Act Fund is a fund that is established as
part of the franchise agreement with Republic Services to divert waste from the landfill. City staff will
discuss the actual diversion rate with the proposed contractor and if it is discovered that there is an
opportunity we will adjust the allocation of costs.
In Exhibit A, Section E. Scope of Work (p.173) under 2.b. Residential Hours and Days: It states that street
sweeping occurs the day after trash pickup. In CPE, this is only true for a small section of the tract; most
of CPE has trash pickup on either Wednesday or Thursday, a day or two after streets are swept on
Tuesday. Staff will work with CleanStreet to determine how best to synchronize the street sweeping
schedule in CPE with trash pick up days.
On page 180, a map of Old Town Street Sweeping identifies an area/areas swept 6 times per month.
Where is this? The map was referring to PCH and should read 4 times a month.
