Moved by Welper, seconded by Clark that the Agenda, as proposed, be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Greenwood. Motion carried. Moved by Welper, seconded by Clark that the Minutes of January 20, 2004, as proposed, be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Greenwood. Motion carried. The request of the Superintendent of Central Garage for authorization to purchase one additional Crown Victoria at the state bid price of $19,839.19 was reviewed. The Crown Victoria will replace a 1998 Ford Expedition which has 123,000 miles on it. The City currently has five Crown Victorias on order off the state bid price. Funds are available in the capital equipment program. Moved by Welper, seconded by Clark that said request be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Greenwood. Motion carried. The request of the Superintendent of Traffic Operations for authorization to purchase a conflict monitor/malfunction management unit tester at an estimated cost of $8,340.00 was reviewed. The existing conflict monitor tester will not test the new MMUs. The city currently has only two MMUs in operation, but all new purchases from now on will be MMUs. The unit recommended for testing is the ATSI (Athens Technical Specialists Inc.) Model PCMT-2500 fully automated tester. The estimated cost for the unit is $8,340.00. Moved by Welper, seconded by Clark that said request be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Greenwood. Motion carried. The request of the Superintendent of Traffic Operations for authorization to seek bids for Eagle Signal cabinets and controllers for the intersections of University Avenue and Fletcher Avenue; University Avenue and Sager Avenue; University Avenue and Falls Avenue; and University Avenue and Midway Avenue at an estimated cost of$50,000.00 was reviewed. Records indicate that steel signal cabinets were installed in 1982 and 1983. At the present time, the cabinets are badly rusted and the new specification on the cabinets and controllers is a NEMA TS2, changing our previous TS 1 specifications which eventually will be phased out to TS2. The University Avenue closed loop system consists of 21 intersections, which are manufactured by Eagle Signal. In order to be compatible the four intersections need to be Eagle Signal controllers and cabinets. Currently, the city is operating two manufacturer's closed loop systems. The goal is to have one manufacturer. The estimated total cost for the four intersections is $50,000.00, and purchase of the equipment will be funded by GO Bond money. Moved by Welper, seconded by Clark that said request be approved. Ayes: Two. Absent: Greenwood. Motion carried.
