B. Award of Contract for the Processing of Parking and Administrative Citations
The City currently contracts with Judicial Data Systems Corporation (JDS) for the processing
and administration of the City's Parking Citations. The contract with JDS was first approved
on June 10, 1981 and was last amended on January 22, 1991. Since the Council recently
adopted an ordinance establishing an administrative citation process, proposals were
requested for the administration of both parking citation and administrative citation programs.
Requests were sought from JDS, Data Ticket and Turbo Data, as these are the three major
vendors providing these types of services. After a thorough review of the proposals, staff is
recommending a contract be awarded to Data Ticket for the administration of both the
parking citations and administrative citations.
Recommendation: That the City Council approve a five year contract with Data Ticket and
authorize the City Manager to sign the applicable documents.

due to the temporary nature of their position along with other factors. Staff has received
authorization from CaIPERS to move forward with this request and is brining before the City

approved a program titled Citywide Energy Efficiency Improvements, which consists of

E. Proposed Traffic Signal Improvements — San Gabriel Boulevard at Walnut Grove
Avenue
The Traffic Commission reviewed a request to evaluate traffic flow at the intersection of San
Gabriel Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue. Motorists traveling through this location
sometimes experience delay, traffic congestion, and some vehicle conflict. After visiting the
site, it was recommended that short -term traffic signal improvements be made to improve the
traffic conditions at the location. Additional long -term improvements will be pursued but will
also require coordination with Caltrans due to the nearby freeway onramp and its close
proximity to this intersection. The Commission concurred with this recommendation.
Recommendation: That the City Council approve the Traffic Commission's
recommendation and authorize staff to make minor signal modifications, install "cat- track"
lane striping, and install "Do Not Block" signs at the intersection of San Gabriel Boulevard
and Walnut Grove Avenue.
