The project consists of furnishing and installing two 3-post hoists, with a capacity of 68,000 pounds, within bays in the Central Garage Shop. These hoists were recommended by the Garage Management Audit Study as a means to improve efficiency and secure a higher level of preventative maintenance. The estimated cost for furnishing and installing these hoists is $60,000. An amount of $60,000 has been allocated, under Account No. 001-311-55729, to finance the costs of this project. These hoists will improve the reliability and availa- bility of the City's fleet, which provides essential services, such as police protection, refuse collection, etc. By improving these features, the vital services provided by the City will be enhanced. Therefore, we recommend that a finding be made that these hoists are needed for health and safety reasor.s. The Planning Department has reviewed this project and determined that it qualifies for a categorical exemption under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act. We recommend that the plans be approved and authorization granted to advertise for bids. URGENCY CLAUSE: An implementation plan has been developed for the recommendations set forth in the Garage Management Audit Study. It is necessary that approval to advertise be granted at the meeting of 9-08-87, in order that the hoists can be installed by the time the per- sonnel to be hired for the swing shift are available. 8-27-87 75-0264
