Again, we do quite a bit of it and we find the need for outside support. It is beneficial that HSI is providing
similar services for the paving program because it enables us to closely coordinate between the two programs.
So as | noted, we find that beneficial. And again, they do local and they act as an extension of our staff and we
find their support very helpful.

ON THE QUESTION
Mayor Donchess
Discussion? Oh excuse me, Mr. Hudson, could you please address this one?
Jon |barra, Superintendent Street Department
Actually it is Superintendent of the Street Department, Jon Ibarra, I'll address this one.
Mayor Donchess
Mr. Ibarra, please go ahead.
Mr. Ibarra
Thank you Mr. Mayor. So K5 was Highway Safety when the bid was done in June of 2020, that’s our annual
striping contract. | am looking to encumber our budgeted line item funds in a change order with this outfit
because they agreed to hold their pricing. So it is just makes sense to keep them there as the low bidder for
the project. They have been doing our striping for many years.
Mayor Donchess
Alderwoman Klee?
