(Citywide)
Motion carries. Fantastic. We have item number 14, please. Item 14 is report from Public Works recommendation to execute an amendment to contract with Safeway Sign Company for the purpose for the purchase of additional signs specifically required for the street sweeping sign replacement project and to increase the contract amount by 800,000 citywide. That's pretty straightforward. Is there a second? Okay. Okay. Councilman Pryce, would you like to speak to this? No Council on the mango. Could the staff let us know what the cause of the increase was? That's a pretty significant increase from the original budgeted amount. It's for our streets. We've been signed, so. I'm familiar what it's for. But didn't we have a quote? We had a quote. I think this is to complete the rest of the signs. Here comes Mr. Beck. Thank you. Yes. Councilmember Mongo, this is part of our citywide contract. This is an ongoing, I guess, as needed contract that we asked council to approve. So when we need signs, we have them in place. As you know, we have started a citywide effort to eliminate all four E.M. sweeping times. And the majority of this contract has been used to purchase new street sweeping signs as we go through that updating process. So it's not. More money for the same number of signs of the second phase of the project. Correct. We have just finished what I've called. I mean, it's an ongoing project, but we kind of just finished phase two and we're now moving into phase three. So we started in our parking impacted neighborhoods and are kind of working our way clockwise around the city. Perfect. Thank you so much. Just making sure they didn't raise the price on us. That's correct. Thank you. Is there any public comment on this item saying nonmembers, please cast your vote?
