MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Shaun Kroes, Program Manager
DATE: 06/03/2020 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Amendment No. 1 to Siemens Mobility Inc., for Streetlight
Maintenance Services
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On July 16, 2019, the City executed an Agreement with Siemens Mobility Inc.
(Siemens), for maintenance services of approximately 2,229 streetlights that the City
was in the process of acquiring from Southern California Edison. Acquisition of the
majority of the poles occurred September 19, 2019, and Siemens’ service began on that
day.
Siemens provides the necessary equipment, personnel and infrastructure to maintain
the City-owned streetlights. Some of the services/features of the Agreement include
providing a 24/7 call center, bucket trucks and crane lift. Siemens also stocks
necessary equipment and replacement parts to ensure the timely repair of streetlights
that may experience technical problems or are damaged by vehicles, such as
knockdowns.
When Siemens responds to knockdowns, their initial response is to secure the area, de-
energize the street light and remove any fallen debris and clean the area. Siemens
then provides City staff with a quote for pole repair and provides repair services upon
City approval. Since execution of the Agreement, Siemens has performed one pole
knockdown replacement as of the time of this staff report.
Siemens’ Agreement expires June 30, 2020, but includes the option of two, one-year
extensions if approved by City Council. Siemens has the ability to propose new pricing
during the Agreement renewal but has determined to keep its 2019 pricing schedule.
The per fixture/pole/month rate for routine maintenance will remain $1.55 per month for
high pressure sodium (HPS) lights and $0.79 per month for light-emitting diode (LED)
lights. For fiscal year (FY) 2019/20, the monthly rate for routine maintenance has been
$3,454.95 based on 2,229 light poles with HPS lights. Routine maintenance also
includes quarterly streetlight operation review (performed at night) at a cost of $795.00
per quarter.

Staff originally expected the conversion of HPS to LED lights to occur within the first two
months of acquisition of the streetlights; however, selection of the LED fixture took
longer than expected as the City extended the length of time that sample LED fixtures
were under display for evaluation. An additional fixture was added (increasing the total
number of models from 3 to 4). A fixture comparison document was provided to the City
January 13, 2020, and after a follow-up meeting with Siemens staff, a revised fixture
selection was submitted on January 22, 2020. During February 2020 the City worked
with Siemens to select a pole tag design. During the last two weeks of February,
Siemens updated their supplier quotes and prepared the fixture selection document as
well as initiated pole tag orders. The final fixture design agreement was signed by the
City on March 5, 2020, which laid out the final fixture selection for procurement.
During Siemens’ purchase order process, suppliers began to warn Siemens of potential
delivery delays due to COVID-19 and ultimately Siemens’ supplier confirmed lead times
were running longer than expected due to closures at manufacturing plants. During the
first week of April, Siemens was informed that the Leotek facility (fixture manufacturer)
had been shut down. At the time of the drafting of this staff report, Siemens reported
the majority of the required materials will be ready for shipping May 26, with delivery in
Moorpark May 27. Conversion of the majority of the streetlights to LED is expected to
take place beginning the week of June 8, 2020. The City is also in the process of
evaluating a specialized LED fixture for the decorative lights on High Street. After a
model fixture is demonstrated, those fixtures will be ordered and installed as well.
FISCAL IMPACT
Streetlight maintenance services are funded with the Citywide Lighting and Landscaping
Fund (2300), through expense line 2300-312-P0006-51210. The original Agreement
has a not-to-exceed limit of $50,000. Staff is projecting a FY 2019/20 expenditure of
approximately $43,000. This is due to HPS lights remaining in place during the term of
the first year of service and a pole knockdown.
Staff is proposing to increase Siemens’ total not-to-exceed Agreement amount by an
additional $50,000; for a total not-to-exceed of $100,000. The Agreement also included
a clause stating that the City Manager can amend the Agreement to increase the not-to-
exceed amount by 10% (or $5,000) if authorized by the City Council. Staff is proposing
to adjust the language to authorize the City Manager to amend the Agreement by an
additional $5,000 (instead of 10%).
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action does not support a current strategic directive.
