  24. 4-a One-Year Term Contract with Four-Year Renewal Options for Electric Utility Distribution Transformers for the Materials and Supply Warehouse (for the Energy Resources Department) (Citywide) This contract will establish a list of qualified, pre-approved vendors for electric utility distribution transformers, including pole-mounted, pad-mounted, and submersible transformer configurations used throughout the City of Mesa electric distribution system. A committee representing the Energy Resources and Engineering Departments and Procurement Services evaluated responses and recommend awarding the contract to the highest scored proposals from Alpha Plotter NC, Inc.; Kllen Group America, Inc.; Magnetron USA, LLC; and Wesco, Inc. dba Anixter, Inc. in a combined total amount not to exceed $10,910,000 annually, with an annual increase allowance of up to 5% or the adjusted Consumer Price Index. 26-0557
  25. 4-b Three-Year Term Contract with Two-Year Renewal Options for Hazardous Facility Operational Support for the Solid Waste Department (Citywide) This contract supports the City of Mesa’s Household Hazardous Materials (HHM) Facility by providing disposal services for hazardous waste materials, on-site staffing services as needed, and necessary equipment supplies. The HHM Facility operates as a drive through service for eligible residents, where staff check in customers, unload vehicles, sort materials, and perform other operational duties. A committee representing the Solid Waste and Environmental and Sustainability Departments and Procurement Services evaluated responses and recommend awarding the contract to the highest scored proposal from Clean Harbors Environmental Services, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $285,000 annually, with an annual increase allowance of up to 5% or the adjusted Consumer Price Index. 26-0575
  26. 4-c Dollar Limit Increase to Use of the Cooperative Term Contract for Route Planning and Management Solutions as Requested by the Solid Waste Department and Department of Innovation and Technology (Citywide) A dollar limit increase is needed to implement an AI-enabled camera system. Solid Waste currently utilizes external, legacy vehicle camera systems to support safe fleet operations; however, the existing system no longer meets operational needs. The Samsara system provides improved image quality, real-time AI alerts to the Solid Waste driver for pedestrians and hazards, and cloud-based video storage and access, which eliminates the need to physically retrieve and reinstall hard drives from vehicles to view video, which is currently required with the existing, labor-intensive system. The Solid Waste Department, Department of Innovation and Technology, and Procurement Services recommend increasing the original dollar limit with Wastech Corp./Routeware, Inc. by an additional amount of $480,320, which includes $138,375 for installation services and $341,945 for two and half years of annual subscription fees for a revised total contract amount not to exceed $807,820. 26-0576

The system will serve as a temporary traffic control solution at locations requiring enhanced safety measures or operational flexibility, particularly in areas with increased commercial vehicle activity or shifting traffic patterns. The Transportation Department and Procurement Services recommend awarding the contract to the sole source vendor, OMJC Signal, in an amount not to exceed $315,000. 26-0578
  28. 4-e Aripine Park & Whitman Park Playground Renovation, Design-Bid-Build Contract (Districts 1 and 4) This project will furnish and install new playground equipment, shade structures, site amenities, concrete ramps and new playground surfacing to the existing and new playgrounds at designated areas in each park. Sidewalk ramps, new engineered wood fiber, and new poured-in-place seamless rubber play surfacing will improve safety and make the playgrounds more accessible.

The City of Mesa and the State of Arizona have maintained intergovernmental agreements for jury administration infrastructure and related jury services for the Mesa Municipal Court since prior to 2000. The purpose of the IGA is to allow the Mesa Municipal Court to continue to utilize the Superior Court’s established jury administration infrastructure and related jury services system rather than creating and maintaining a separate full-service jury operation internally.
