HomeMy WebLinkAbout020221-05.3 ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 5.3
TO: Mayor and Town Council February 2, 2021
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 5-2021, authorizing the purchase of two Rectangular Rapid
Flashing Beacon (“RRFB”) Systems for the Traffic Management Program,
CIP C-305
BACKGROUND
The Capital Improvement Program includes the Traffic Management Program, CIP C-305
(Attachment B) which provides for installation of various traffic calming devices and
measures. This resolution will allow for the replacement of two existing crosswalk warning
beacon systems.
In the late 1990s, the Town began installing illuminated crosswalk and warning beacon
systems at heavily traveled intersections and trail crossing locations to enhance pedestrian
and bicyclist safety. These first-generation systems were costly to install and, over time,
have proven to be costly to maintain. In the 2000s, agencies began utilizing Rectangular
Rapid Flashing Beacon (“RRFB”) systems as an effective, cost-conscious alternative to the
in-roadway systems. To date, the Town has installed RRFB systems at 15 locations.
DISCUSSION
Through field inspections and increased maintenance activity, staff has determined that two
of the Town’s existing warning beacon systems have reached the end of their useful service
life and are proposed for replacement. The two systems, which are a high priority for
replacement due to their close proximity to schools, are located at:
1.Diablo Road/Arroyo Drive intersection (serving Vista Grande Elementary School)
2.La Gonda Way (serving St. Isidore School)
The Town solicited and received a bid from Traffic and Parking Control Co., Inc. (“TAPCO”)
for the two new RRFB systems (Attachment C). TAPCO is a reputable manufacturer and
supplier of traffic control devices and safety systems throughout the United States, and their
systems have been installed at several Town locations with a high degree of effectiveness.
Based upon past performance, and to maintain equipment consistency, it is recommended
that the TAPCO RRFB system be utilized for the subject locations.
Authorizing the purchase of RRFB 2 February 2, 2021
Systems, CIP C-305
Direct purchasing of the RRFB equipment from TAPCO is permitted through OMNIA
Partners, Public Sector Cooperative Purchasing Organization (the “Purchasing
Organization”) of which TAPCO is under contract with to supply traffic control products.
The Town has been a participating public agency of the Purchasing Organization since 2009.
Installation of the RRFB systems will be performed by Contra Costa County Signal
Maintenance, the Town’s traffic signal maintenance contractor. The work is scheduled to
begin in March 2021 and expected to be completed by the end of March, weather permitting.
This project has been found to be Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) according to Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 1).
PUBLIC CONTACT
Posting of the meeting agenda serves as notice to the general public. A standard Town
Capital Improvement sign will be placed at the various project sites.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for the purchase and shipping of RRFB systems for the two identified pedestrian
crossing locations is $17,587.02. Sufficient funds have been appropriated in CIP Project C-
305 to cover these costs.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 5-2021, authorizing the purchase of two Rectangular Rapid Flashing
Beacon Systems (“RRFB”) for the Traffic Management Program, CIP C-305.
