The inspection included the review of all 18 traffic control systems that exist within <br />the Elk River city limits. The signal systems were fully inspected for condition of paint, lights, equipment, <br />and controls. The paint ratings showed the need to begin a painting program to preserve the signal <br />systems. Four signal systems were painted in 2011. We have reviewed the condition of the remaining <br />systems and obtained quotations to have the following seven systems painted in 2012: <br />^ TH 169 and Main Street <br />^ TH 10 and Main Street <br />^ TH 10 and Jackson Avenue <br />^ TH 10 and Proctor Avenue <br />^ TH 10 and Upland Avenue (CR 44) <br />^ TH 10 and Joplin Street <br />^ TH 10 Off Ramp at TH 101/169 (MNDOT responsibility) <br />Similar to the program established in 2011, all of the above listed signals are proposed to be painted in <br />the brown and black color scheme. <br />If this work is approved by the City Council, staff will work with OLS Restoration, Inc. and the <br />Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) on a schedule for the work. We would prefer to <br />schedule the work after MNDOT has completed their mill and overlay project on TH 169, which is <br />scheduled to begin on or around June 8, 2012. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />The three quotations received for the work are summarized as follows: <br />Aerial Painting, Inc. $62,670 <br />OLS Restoration, Inc. $39,100 <br />Pole Painting Plus $45,040 <br />~P0~14E8EQ BI <br />A~U~ <br />
