Item to be presented by: Kevin Tonoian
DATE: September 9, 2014
SUBJECT: AWARD CONTRACT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE LOS ANGELES
REGION IMAGERY ACQUISITION CONSORTIUM
DEPARTMENT: Administrative Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council:
1. Direct staff to execute a Participant Agreement with Los Angeles County (County) and award
contract to Los Angeles County for an amount not to exceed $83,200 for the purchase of
high-quality aerial imagery and elevation datasets.
2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute all contracts and associated documents,
contingent upon the appropriation of funds by the City Council in the annual budget for such
Fiscal Year, and execute all documents subject to City Attorney approval.
BACKGROUND
In May 2008, the City Council authorized staff to enter into an agreement with Los Angeles
County to participate in the Los Angeles Region hnagery Acquisition Consortium (LAR -IAC).
This program, organized by the County of Los Angeles Chief Information Office, provided the
City with high-quality and accurate aerial imagery and elevation data products, and was formed
with the purpose of making these aerial images available at a cost that would be far less if
acquired through independent acquisition. If the City were to independently contract for data
comparable to what is provided through the County's program, the cost to the City would be
almost 80% more.
Staff is recommending the City continue to participate in the LAR -IAC Program to obtain
updated aerial imagery of the Santa Clarita Valley. Participants in the Consortium include the
��
County of Los Angeles, more than 25 additional cities (such as Glendale, Pasadena, Los Angeles,
and Torrance), and public -sector organizations (including Caltrans).
As in 2008, the project will capture digital aerial imagery data and related photogrammetric
services for the 4,100 -square -mile Los Angeles County area. Consortium members will be
provided with highly accurate digital aerial imagery and other data with Geographic Information
System (GIS), web -mapping systems, computer-aided design (CAD), and engineering design
applications. Delivery includes near -infrared imagery, oblique imagery, elevation data, and
topography line data. Staff expects to receive this data prior to the end of calendar year 2014.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
1. Do not approve the award of this contract.
2. Other alternatives as identified by Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds for this expenditure were anticipated and appropriated by the City Council as
part of the Fiscal Year 2014-15 budget adoption process.
