Committee Communication
Public Works Committee Meeting: August 15, 2011
Prepared: August 10, 2011
Dept. Head Signature: S.G.
# of Attachments:
SUBJECT:
Submitted by:
Permission to Purchase Thermoplastic Arrows,
Stop Bars, RXR Kits, Sealer Kits, and Propane Torch
Sandie Greco, Traffic Operations Superintendent
Recommended City Council Action: Approve Purchase
Summary Statement
Using this order of (30) thermoplastic arrows, (2) stop bars and (4) RXR kits in place of
annual painting will save on the purchase of two 55 gallon barrels of paint per year.
These symbols will be installed on high speed and high volume streets within the city.
This is also a safety issue — the paint crew will not be setting up on the streets of high
traffic volumes and speed every year to paint symbols.
Expenditure Required
Not to exceed $7,000.00
Source of Funds
Road Use Tax
Policy Issue

Background Information:
Two arrows were placed a year ago on Westfield at the intersection of W. Commercial
St. Over the last year they have not changed in reflectivity and have not shown any
wear. Life expectancy is 5 to 7 years. Approximately 375 arrows on the west side and
100 arrows on the east side of town are repainted each year — time and weather
permitting.
