STAFF REPORT
TO:
The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM:
Steven J. Goclon, Chief of Police
DATE:
February 10,2004
RE:
Two additional patrol vehicles added to SunTrust lease
ISSUE
Should the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners authorize two additional patrol
vehicles to be added to this year's SunTrust lease to replace two vehicles recently declared
totaled by the City's insurance company.
BACKGROUNDIDISCUSSION
The police department wishes to add two additional patrol vehicles (over what was authorized in
the 2003/2004 budget) to the SunTrust lease. Recent traffic crashes have caused two marked
patrol vehicles to be declared totaled by the City's insurance company. The amount received for
# 320 (1997 Crown Victoria) is $4,925.00. The City has not received a settlement for # 325
(1998 Crown Victoria), but anticipates it will be as much if not more than the one received for #
320. The money received from the insurance company for both vehicles should cover the
remainder of this year's lease. Any shortfall in the lease for the two additional vehicles not
covered by insurance proceeds would be made up for by forfeiture funds. The totaled vehicles
were scheduled to be replaced in budget year 2004/2005.
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
approve two additional patrol vehicles to be added to this year's SunTrust lease to replace two
vehicles recently declared totaled by the City's insurance company.
