DATE: December 14, 2015 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />Sue Iverson, Acting City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: John Anderson, Acting Public Works Director <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Regulatory Sign Replacement <br /> <br />Requested Action <br /> <br />Authorize Staff to order and install signs listed in the Quotation from MR Sign, Fergus Falls, <br />MN in the amount of $10,413.34 <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />The Public Works Department has been working to comply with the federally mandated <br />retroreflectivity of regulatory street signs. In 2014 a number of street signs were ordered and <br />installed by public works in 2015. We plan to continue this practice until we have updated signs <br />throughout the entire city. <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />The City Council adopted a sign retrorefectivit y sign policy May 4, 2015 based on the expected <br />life method. Signs throughout the City will be replaced and installation documented in Simple <br />Signs as well as by placing a sticker on the sign. Moving forward signs will be replaced based <br />on the expected life cycle of each installation. An additional benefit of this approach is all out <br />dated signs will be replaced with the modern equivalent or eliminated if redundant or no longer <br />relevant. The City solicited 3 quotes, 2 were returned with the quote from MR Sign being the <br />lowest at $10,413.34. with the work identified in this order and the signs previously replaced <br />roughly 90 percent of the sign replacement will be completed throughout the city. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />Attachment A: Quotations received <br /> <br /> <br />CONSENT ITEM – 6L <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br />
