Maintenance Account 14402-5161.001 for maintenance of the existing L.E.D. modules..
BACKGROUND
This last phase of the 5 -year L.E.D. Replacement Program will replace incandescent traffic signal
lamps with energy-efficient L.E.D. modules and install pedestrian countdown modules at 29
intersections. At the completion of this phase, the L.E.D. Replacement Program modernized a
total of 176 signalized intersections.
The existing incandescent traffic signal lamps within the City utilize 150 watts per lamp, while
the energy-efficient L.E.D. modules use only 10 watts per lamp. This 93 percent reduction in
energy consumption will save the City approximately $30,000 annually in utility costs.
PPROVED'
On February 8, 2011, the City Council awarded the construction contract to Republic Intelligent
Transportation Services in the amount of $121,999, plus a 15 percent contingency in the amount
of $18,300, for a total contract amount of $140,299. This project was completed within budget to
the satisfaction of the City Engineer on April 4, 2011.
The $80,000 in project savings is requested for the maintenance, replacement, and cleaning of the
existing LED modules.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
