AGREEMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $8,840.78, WITH MUSCAT() SIGNS FOR

REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
B. ADOPT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING TOWN MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN

PROGRAM
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Adopt resolution authorizing Town Manager to execute an Agreement in the amount of $8,840.78, with Muscato
Signs for street name signs and poles as part of the Downtown Sign Replacement Program.
2. Adopt resolution authorizing Town Manager to execute an Agreement in the amount of $6,984.03, with Pelco
Products, Inc. for street sign hardware as part of the Downtown Sign Replacement Program.
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of the Central Business District (CBD) sign replacement program is to improve and unify the overall
appearance of the right-of-way. With the Streetscape Plan planter construction, pedestrian scale light installation, and
new street furniture, the downtown needs the finishing touch of a unified sign program. Signs currently posted in the
CBD right-of-way are redundant, inconsistent, and not always helpful to visitors experiencing downtown Los Gatos.
The Central Business District Streetscape and Improvement Guidelines were amended in April 1996 to include the
Streetscape Concept Plan. The Guidelines include a section on signs in the public right-of-way that is listed below:
1) The Town shall develop a consistent public sign program for non -regulatory signs that allow the casual user
to quickly orient themselves to the area. Typical sign groups are directional, traffic, street signs and public
parking lot signs.
2) Sign locations shall be chosen carefully and should be consolidated when possible to reduce visual clutter.

3) The selected sign program shall be consistent throughout the Central Business District and signs shall consist
of the same material, size, color and type.
4) Town signs shall use symbols instead of text as much as possible, particularly for traffic signs.
5) Town signs shall be fully compliant with ADA and Title 24 requirements.
DISCUSSION:
Existing street name signs are inconsistent in color, shape and letter type. Some have a brown background with beige
lettering and some have a white background with black lettering. Proposed street name signs will be consistent in color,
shape and letter type as well as highlight our "Historic Downtown" (see full sized sample). The well known cupola from
the La Canada Building has been chosen as the icon for the downtown street signs, along with the words "Historic
Downtown." (The Farwell family has released permission to the Town for use of the cupola.)
Local graphic artists Rick Tharp and Patrick Keller have designed the street name signs. The signs for the major streets
(Santa Cruz Avenue and Main Street) will have a "crown" with the cupola icon. The signs for the cross streets will be
straight blade signs. All the signs will be brown, with cream and black trim and reflective white letters. In addition,
the poles will be black powder -coated, with a decorative black aluminum base and black mounting hardware. In
locations where there is no "crown," a spire finial (see actual finial) will be place on top of the signs.
Mr. Keller and Mr. Tharp have generously donated their time in preparing alternatives for the street name signs and in
designing the actual street name signs and icon. However, as previous agreed, they have charged the Town $998.56
for making the signs and art work computer ready.
Bid requests were sent to four or five different sign companies. The company that was our original choice withdrew
their bid after a discussion with our graphic artist, Rick Tharp. In review the other bids, it was clear from the way the
bid were made that the sign makers did not fully understand what was involved to make the signs. The company chosen,
Muscato Signs of San Jose, intends to black powder -coat the aluminum sign blanks, then add the three colors of vinyl.
Muscato Signs also gave us a bid on the new black powder -coated poles that was less than the verbal quotes we
received. The agreement with Muscato Signs will include the cost of the poles.
It was difficult to find ornamental poles. The only supplier that had anything close to what we wanted was Pelco
Products, Inc. of Edmond, Oklahoma. Pelco sells a separate ornamental base (Attachment 3) that attaches to a 2 inch
I.D. galvanized pole. They also sell the ornamental hardware that has been powder -coated black. The advantage to the
ornamental base is that the existing poles can easily be removed from the current mounting (Attachment 4) and the new
black pole installed. Other types of ornamental poles would be difficult and costly to install in our existing sidewalks.
CONCLUSION:
Street name signs in the CBD right-of-way are currently functional, but inconsistent. The proposed street name signs
will be the first step in unifying the signs downtown. As other phases of the sign replacement program are implemented,
sign improvements for the CBD will provide the finishing touch to the overall Downtown Streetscape Plan
implementation.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS:
Is not a project defined under CEQA, and no further action is required.
