INFORMATIONAL ITEM
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
‘'� FROM: LOUIE H. PEDROZA JR., SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
ktVIA: HENRY GARCIA, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
DATE: JANUARY 27, 1997
SUBJECT: EMERGENCY WINDSTORM DEBRIS REMOVAL
As a result of the recent windstorms on January 6 & 7, 1997,the City accumulated tons of tree
debris at the "First St. Transfer Site." The collection of tree debris filled this site to capacity
level thus, preventing routine activities i.e., daily street sweeping dumping and daily park
maintenance litter disposal.
The Superintendent of Public Works and the Community Services Director evaluated and
determined cause to deem an emergency action and the need to remove all accumulated tree
debris in order to continue with our daily routine activities. Staff's action was based on the
evaluation of time, labor and size of equipment. It was estimated that in-house services utilizing
our equipment could take as long as twenty days versus two days by outside services.
Therefore, Staff deemed it necessary to act under an emergency situation in reference to the
windstorm and authorized A.A.J. Inc., general contractor to remove and transport all debris to a
landfill without alternate proposals. Attached is a copy of their proposal for your review.
Staff is requesting your acknowledgment of the work being performed and concurrence of the
action taken. As per Azusa Municipal Code, Section 2-516, Staff will place an Agenda Item for
your approval on the February 3, 1997 consent calendar, for this action and expenditure.
Funding for this action is available within the.Street Division budget(101-400-2312-6455 refuse
collection). This line item account is not affiliated with maintenance operations. Funding
reimbursement is a possibility should the State of California declare a local State of emergency.
