BILL O'ROURKE, CHIEF OF POLICE
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 99-XX
AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF TWO (2) 1999 FORD CROWN
VICTORIA SQUAD CARS.
The Police Department requests the Council's approval to order squad cars
that have been approved and adopted in the 1999 Budget.
Historv
Each year, with the purchase of new squads, the Police Department rotates
two of it's older models to other City departments; i.e., Building Inspections
and Engineering, thus getting extended use from the vehicles and ensuring
dependability and reliability of our primary emergency response vehicles.
Once again this year, Superior Ford has received the Government bid for
police vehicles.
Current circumstances
The approval of this purchase will allow the Police Department to rotate a
squad with nearly 1 00,000 miles and another with approximately 90,000
miles out of police service for use by other city departments (both figures
estimates at time of expected delivery in May '99).
Financial Impact
The new Ford Crown Victorias are $20,725.00 each, for a total of
$41,450.00. The Department budget contains $45,000.00 for the two
vehicles.
