Authorize the City Engineer to execute and file the Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's Office. FISCAL IMPACT The final construction cost for the Traffic Signal Battery Backup System Installations (Phase 3) CIP No. 40079 is $169,614. There were no contract change orders. Measure M2 Fair Share Funds were appropriated for the project in the City's FY 2013/14 Capital Improvement Program in the amount of $235,000. CIP 40079 is being constructed in multiple phases and remaining funds will be applied to Phase 4 which is the final phase. CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN The installation of Battery Backup Systems at traffic signals contributes to the fulfillment of the City's Strategic Plan Goal B: Public Safety and Protection of Assets. Specifically, the project implements or fosters the implementation of strategy #3(b) which, among other items, is to ensure continuous maintenance and improvement of traffic control and transportation facilities. DISCUSSION The installation of Battery Backup Systems (BBS's) at traffic signals is desired in order to maintain safe, normal vehicular operations when planned or unplanned electrical interruptions occur. Although BBS's are currently being installed at all new traffic signals, there is a need to install them at older traffic signals through a retrofit process. Within the City's Capital Improvement Program, CIP 40079 provides four (4) phases of BBS installations spread over four (4) successive fiscal years, thereby ensuring that all City- maintained traffic signals ultimately have operational battery backup systems. 5 Battery Backup Installations (Phase 3) CIP 40079 October 21, 2014 Page 2 Phase 3 of CIP 40079 consisted of eighteen (18) traffic signals on First Street, McFadden Avenue, Red Hill Avenue and Walnut Avenue. Construction of this project is deemed complete to the satisfaction of the City Engineer and is now ready for City Council acceptance. P. E. Works /City Engineer Attachment(s): 1.
