SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF TWO SPARE ITERIS TRAFFIC VEHICLE DETECTION
SYSTEMS
RECOMMENDATION: City Council to consider approval for the purchase of two spare Iteris
traffic vehicle detection systems from Iteris, Inc. for the Public Works
Department.
FUNDING SOURCE: Funds are available in the Permanent Capital Maintenance Fund for a
total amount not to exceed $38,846.
BACKGROUND: This is for the purchase of two Iteris traffic vehicle detection systems.
These will be spare systems to have on hand in the event that any
equipment or cameras get damaged and must be replaced. We currently
have 21 intersections with this detection system.
This purchase will be made in accordance with an existing interlocal
agreement with The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (Buy
Board) as allowed by Texas Local Government Code, Chapter 271 and
Texas Government Code, Chapter 791.
Bids were taken by the Cooperative and a contract was awarded to Iteris,
Inc. The Public Works and Purchasing staff reviewed the contract for
departmental specification compliance and pricing and determined that
the contract would best meet the needs of the City.
Staff recommends approval
