City Council Report
Date: September 28, 2026
To: City Council
Through: Michael Kennington, Deputy City Manager/Chief Financial Officer
From: Edward Quedens, Business Services Director
Kristy Garcia, Procurement Administrator
Subject: Dollar Limit Increase to the Term Contract for Barricade Rental Service for
Various City Departments (Citywide)
Recommendation
Council is requested to approve the contract amendment as recommended.
The Transportation, Energy Resources, Water Resources, and Parks, Recreation &
Community Facilities Departments and Procurement Services recommend increasing the
dollar limit with Roadsafe Traffic Systems, Inc. (Primary) and Quail Construction, LLC
(Secondary) by $1,175,945, from $1,450,000 in a combined total amount not to exceed
$2,625,945, through 12/3/2026 (Year 3) and by $1,543,743 from $1,350,000 in a combined
total amount not to exceed $2,893,743 annually for Years 4 and 5.
Background / Discussion
Multiple City departments including Water Resources, Energy Resources, Police, Parks
and Recreation, and Transportation – Traffic Engineering and Field Operations utilize this
contract. Field Operations utilizes this contract for their unique and specific seal coat
activities. Deploying temporary traffic control measures is necessary for City maintenance
projects and any emergency needs. The Contractors provide barricade equipment,
supplies, delivery, installation, maintenance, and removal services using qualified
personnel. Services are on an as-needed basis, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including
holidays.
The requested increase is due to the City performing a greater portion of pavement
preservation work in-house, resulting in increased use of the barricade services contract. The
Pavement Preservation Program currently performs approximately 40% of this work in-house
and plans to increase that amount to approximately 50% over the next five years. The
increase will provide sufficient contract capacity to support that anticipated additional usage
and potential price adjustments through the remaining term of the agreement.
Funding for these additional needs is included in the department’s operating budgets.
