Summary
Council approved a purchase order for two 2026 Ford Super Duty trucks to add to the city's graffiti removal fleet, bringing the total number of graffiti vehicles to four; staff said the vehicles will be staffed and deployed across districts.
The City Council approved a purchase order for two 2026 Ford Super Duty trucks for the Public Works Department to support the city's anti‑graffiti program.
City staff said the acquisition will increase the dedicated graffiti removal fleet to four vehicles. Public Works representatives told the council the trucks are intended to be crewed and deployed to address graffiti removal citywide; staff estimated approximately a six‑month lead time for vehicle build and delivery.
Councilmembers noted rising graffiti complaints and asked that Public Works maintain a deployment plan to ensure coverage across the city's four council districts. The city manager confirmed the vehicles will be integrated into the Public Works operations and that crews will continue to conduct abatement operations and respond to hot‑spot requests.
Council approved the purchase as part of the consent calendar; staff indicated funding is available in the fleet replacement or capital accounts supporting Public Works operations.
