REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GRANT M. YATES
CITY MANAGER
DATE: APRIL 22, 2014
SUBJECT: PURCHASE TRAFFIC SIGNAL POLES /MAST ARMS FOR THE
TRAFFIC SIGNAL IMPROVEMENTS AT
SUMMERHILL DRIVE AT VIA SCENICA
PROJECT NO. 4423
CANYON HILLS ROAD AT SAGE LANE
PROJECT NO. 4368
Recommendations
1. Authorize the pole /mast arms purchase for the Traffic Signal Improvements at
Summerhill Drive at Via Scenica and Canyon Hills Road at Sage Lane to
McCain, Inc. for the not to exceed amount of $53,328.00.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract with McCain, Inc.
Background
The contractor is typically responsible for the placement of orders for the pole and mast
arms and other ancillary traffic signal equipment for traffic signal projects. The time of
fabrication for traffic signal and mast arms ranges from 10 to 14 weeks depending upon
the manufacturer's current fabrication work load. The City of Lake Elsinore is pre -
ordering the poles and mast arms for the two traffic signal projects in order to facilitate
the installation process and to maintain the project completion by this summer.
Discussion
The City had requested pole and mast arms cost quotes from the two signal pole
fabricators Valmont Industries, Inc. and Ameron International. The quotes that were
received were by their distributors, McCain, Inc. and Pacific Lighting Sales, Inc.,
respectfully. The City had sent the pole schedule and letter dated April 3, 2014 detailing
the requirements for the fabrication of the poles and signal mast arms. The City also
requested an expedited fabrication cost which neither firm offers. The City reviewed the
anticipated fabrication delivery dates from each firm and determined that they were no
real benefits in delivery schedule relative to the added cost between the two proposals.
The City anticipates an 8 week time saving by pre- ordering the traffic signal poles and
mast arms. All other ancillary traffic signal equipment will be purchased by the general
contractor.
The following are the cost proposals from their distributors:

It is anticipated that the pole delivery date will coincide with the contractor's Notice to
Proceed by approximately one week, which will allow for the foundations to be placed
just prior to pole /mast arm delivery date if the materials take the full 13 weeks to
fabricate.
