Bell Gardens Council Selects Florence Avenue for Holiday Banner Poles, Approves Estimated $325,000 Cost
Summary
The council voted to place holiday banner poles on Florence Avenue (east of Eastern Avenue), with staff estimating $325,000 per location; council directed staff to proceed with procurement and return with design details.
Bell Gardens' council members voted Feb. 9 to place holiday banner poles on Florence Avenue east of Eastern Avenue, approving staff to proceed with procurement and follow up with design and specifications.
Public Works Director Bernie Anigos presented two location alternatives and estimated a fiscal impact of $325,000 per location. After brief discussion of visibility and traffic volumes, a motion to locate the banner poles on Florence Avenue passed on a roll call vote recorded in the transcript.
Staff said lead times for poles can vary due to fabrication and supply constraints, and that selecting a location allows staff to begin ground and easement reviews and prepare plans for council approval of final designs.
