Agenda Item Brief:

Public works is requesting that the Council approve Interlocal Agreement # NM124-16-016 between the City of Sparks and Nevada DOT.



Background:

Nevada DOT has agreed to purchase thirty five new controllers to upgrade the NDOT part of our traffic control system with the understanding that we will install them at our cost as part of the ongoing traffic signal maintenance agreement that we have with them.

This purpose of this agreement is to provide assurance to NDOT that we will indeed install these controllers at the intersections owned by the State.

The State is providing these controllers to Sparks to enhance operational readiness, increase security, improve monitoring, increase safety, and enhance motorist progression throughout the City.



Analysis:

It is the opinion of staff that the replacement of these controllers will not result in excessive additional work for our staff, and will be done during routine annual maintenance.



Alternatives:

None.



Recommended Motion:

I move to approve the Interlocal Cooperative Agreement AC-5235 (NM124-16-016) with NDOT to provide installation of thirty five controllers at NDOT signal locations.
