BACKGROUND The Notice to Proceed for Contract No. 04-030 with Totem Electric of Tacoma, Inc., of Tacoma, Washington, was issued on July 26, 2004, for the construction of Project No 92-RW01. This project provided the installation of approximately 30,200 linear feet of fiber optic cable, 14,100 linear feet of intercoIlllect communication cable, conduit, junction boxes, and other associated items. The installation of this equipment will allow (as part of the next phase) coordination of traffic signals on the W Valley Hwy and S 180th St corridors as well as future communication capabilities such as cameras. This contract was substantially completed on November 2, 2004. Five change orders were issued during the contract. Change Order No.3 was anticipated but was not executed. Unit price quantities were adjusted to reflect field changes, which allowed more direct conduit routing and less property disruption. This proactive field management throughout construction resulted in over $28,000 in savings to the City.

Green River Valley Signal Interconnect Project Completion and Acceptance Totem Electnc completed the lllstallation of fiber optic cable with five change orders that upgraded the fiber to 36 strands and added the connection to Minkler Shops for the new Traffic Operations Center. Jim H asked if there was a standard fiber size and was told no, that 36 is a lot but Jim M told him we can not have more capacity than what is needed. Frank added that 36 strands seems large now, but in a few years it may not be enough capacity. This project had our in-house construction management team, which resulted in over $28,000 in savings. The project has been approved, and is ready for [mal acceptance. Recommend contract approval on consent agenda of a Regular Meeting. 2. Transportation Funding Update Pam Carter attended the Puget Sound Regional Council and obtained this packet on the Nickel Package and the new 2005 funding. The 2005 transportation funding has a chart ofthe gas tax progression through 2008 as well as the new weight fees and the increase in drivers' lIcense services as well as license plates. The average driver will be paying approximately $309.08 in gas taxes and state license fees in 2005. There is a description of how the funds will be distributed (for cities its based on population) and a listing of programs and projects. The majority of the King County funds will go towards safety and then congestion. The last page is a state by state comparison of fuel taxes and Washington is currently number 10 from the highest. Committee recommends forwarding to COW as information for the entire Council. Committee Chair approval_ Minutes by GL
