AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MOORPARK 7
TO: The Honorable City Council �-
-'y
FROM: Baldemar Troche, Public Works Management Analyst
DATE: August 16, 1994 (CC Meeting of September 7, 1994)
SUBJECT: CONSIDER AMENDMENTS TO THE BUDGET FOR THE ACQUISITION OF
CERTAIN STREET STRIPING EQUIPMENT
OVERVIEW
This presents for approval the subject request.
BACKGROUND
On March 7, 1994, the City took delivery of the new stencil truck.
Said equipment allows the public works field personnel to repaint
characters, limit bars and other symbols which have deteriorated to
a point of raising concerns over traffic safety.
DISCUSSION
A. Equipment Request
1. Paint Shaker
One of the tasks to performing the above described work is to
stir the five (5) gallon paint buckets before inserting the
suction hose into the paint bucket. If the paint is not
stirred, the suction hose will get clogged and therefore
affect the quality of paint being sprayed onto the road
surface. The paint shaker, refer to Exhibit 'A', would
eliminate said practice, increase worker productivity, and
enhance work quality. Estimated cost is $1,750.00.
2. Stripina Cart
As described in the attached brochure, refer to Exhibit 'B',
the airless striping cart can be utilized by connecting the
system to the Stencil truck. Purchase of this equipment will
allow staff to stripe parking lots and stripe minor line re-
pointing. Estimated cost is $550.00.

The SC -1 Airless Striping Cart was designed to
paint 2" to 12" lines using any airless paint sprayer to
atomize the paint. This low cost striping cart comes
complete with 3000 PSI spray gun, a flat striping tip
and a four foot whip hose. The gun holder allows
simple adjustment of the line width. The line guide
makes striping over existing lines simple and accu
rate. By changing spray tips, up to a 12" line can be
painted in a single pass. All that is necessary for
operation is to connect a customer suppled airless
pump system to the unit. Any airless sprayer will work.
The speed with which you can stripe is determined by
the output of the sprayer used.This cost effective
system pillows building maintenance people to now
stripe parking areas with the same unit they use to
paint the buildings. Municipal marking crews can use
the airless system on their stencil trucks with the SC-
1 striping cart for painting cross walks or street mark-
ings. Rental yards can use any airless sprayer in their
fieet. providing additonal rental income and more
fieKib lity For more information contact the factory or
