RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
FINDING COMPETITIVE BIDDING TO BE IMPRACTICAL FOR THE
PURCHASE OF STIMSONITE MARKERS AND AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE
OF THE NECESSARY FUNDS THEREFOR FROM THE 186.1 GAS TAX FUNDS
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the Stimsonite pavement
markers manufactured by the Elastic Stop Nut Corporation of America,
Signal Products Division, in Elizabeth, New Jersey, is the most desirable
type of marker to be utilized for traffic dividers because of their
design, specifications and durability, and
WHEREAS, said finding of superiority and excellance of said
pavement markers is an opinion shared by numerous other jurisdictions
in the County of San Diego and
WHEREAS, the application and serviceability of said markers
will provide the highest quality in terms of safety and maintenance,
and until further technological improvements in the field of development
and manufacture of pavement markers would indicate a more desirable
product for this use the Stimsonite markers will continue to be used
for such purpose by the City of Chula Vista, and
WHEREAS, direct purchase of said pavement markers from the
Elastic Stop Nut Corporation of America, Signal Products Division, in
Elizabeth, New Jersey, is the most economical means of acquiring said
markers, and

purchase of the following numbers and models of said Stimsonite markers:
2100 #89 Mono-dir. white Stim. Markers
200 #88b Mono-dir. white Stim. Markers
500 #88a Bi-dir. yellow Stim. Markers
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Chula Vista, based upon the foregoing reasons and facts, does
hereby find that competitive biding for the acquisition of said pavement
markers is impractical and undesirable.

he is hereby directed to complete this transaction and conclude such
necessary contracts with Elastic Stop Nut Corporation of America for
the acquisition of said pavement markers.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that such sums as are necessary to

expenditure from the 186.1 Gas Tax funds for the purpose hereinabove
set forth.
