| | | | | | | | Description
Resolution accepting the work of Scales Sales & Service for the Recycling Center Scale Purchase and Installation Project Phase I A. Project # 2021-168 |
|
| | | | | | | | Background/Discussion
The Recycling Center scale was installed in 1997, the year the Recycling Center was opened. It was near the end of its useful life.
In the first few years of operation, annual traffic averaged 16,000 vehicles. In 2020, nearly 54,000 vehicles utilized the facility.
The purchase and installation of this scale allowed for the redesign of the facility entrance. The operation with the new design will open both gates for separate inbound and outbound traffic through each gate. This new scale will function as the inbound traffic scale while utilizing the existing scale for outbound traffic.
Phase two of the project is the removal of the old 1997 scale and replacement with a new outbound scale.
These two projects enhance safety by eliminating issues caused by crossing traffic patterns and reduce bottlenecks at the entrance of the facility.
The total construction cost for this project was $147,145.00. The project was included in the Recycling Center Operating Budget.
