Adopt Reso-Authorizing Payment for Emergency Replacement of Fiber-Optic Hub CabinetAPMB%b Big CITY MANAGER TO: HONORABLE MAYOR ASHTON AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER pe - BY: MOHAMMAD MOSTAHKAMI, P.E., DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DATE: MARCH 27, 2018 QUBJECT: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PAYMENT TO CROSSTOWN ELECTRICAL & DATA FOR THE EMERGENCY REPLACEMENT OF FIBER-OPTIC HUB CABINET (TWO-THIRDS VOTE REQUIRED) In the early morning hours of October 13j 2017, a traffic collision occurred on Lakewood Boulevard immediately north of Firestone Boulevard, resulting in damage to a fiber-optic hub cabinet located near the northwest corner of the Lakewood Boulevard at Firestone Boulevard intersection. Said fiber-optic hub cabinet contains several connections involving the city's fiber- optic communications system including the traffic signal and city's phone and data systems. The damage to the cabinet and inner contents severed the phone and data connection between City Hall and Fire Station 4. Due to the urgent nature to restore the communication link between City Hall and Fire Station 4 as well as other communications, the fiber-optic hub cabinet needed to be replaced immediately and there was not sufficient time to solicit bids to do this work. Therefore, staff contacted Crosstown Electrical & Data, Inc. (Crosstown) and requested the contractor replace the hub cabinet and internal components. Crosstown is very experienced with the city's fiber-optic communications system, has been involved with the implementation of the system since its original installation and has always been the "go -to" contractor to troubleshoot the system because of their vast knowledge and familiarity with the system. In addition, Crosstown was able to deploy resources immediately and had the equipment and tools in its inventory in order to immediately replace the cabinet and contents and restore communications. AUTHORIZATION OF PAYMENT TO CROSSTOWN ELECTRICAL & DATA, INC. MARCH 27, 2018 Due to the cost of the repair work being beyond the City Manager's administrative authority, the City Council, in accordance with City Charter Article XII Section 1211, must adopt a resolution declaring the damage to the fiber-optic hub cabinet of an emergency nature to preserve the community's life, health and property and authorize payment for the repair work. As such, staff recommends that City Council declare the damage to the fiber-optic hub cabinet caused by a vehicle on October 13, 2017 an emergency requiring immediate repairs in order to immediately restore vital city communications between City hall and Fire Station No. 4 as well as the operation of the city's traffic signals and authorize the Director of Public Works to approve payment in the amount of $16,116 to Crosstown for the replacement of the fiber-optic hub cabinet and restoration of communications on an emergency basis. There are sufficient funds budgeted in the Lighting & Landscaping Assessment District, Zone 3 in Account No. 23-4-5513 to cover the $16,116 payment.
