Subject: Approval of Police Department Vehicle Lease. (Assistant Police Chief McKinstry)
Background Summary:
The Police Department currently leases four (4) vehicles, from Bancorp, for undercover, plainclothes, and/or
surveillance activities for a cost of $21,720 per year. These vehicles have exceeded their effective covert
service; therefore, the Police Department is requesting to return the four (4) Bancorp vehicles and replace
them with two (2) new vehicles, from Enterprise Leasing, for a cost of $10,200 per year for a two (2) year term.
This request to change vendors is based on cost and availability of similar vehicle types: Bancorp’s cost is
$28,880 per year and Enterprise’s cost is $10,200 per year. Furthermore, Bancorp is experiencing supply
chain issues which will delay delivery.
Attached is a sample lease outlining the exact lease terms and cost; however, the sample lease does not
contain specific identifiable information regarding vehicles used for covert law enforcement activities.
Information on vehicles used for covert law enforcement activity is confidential and exempt from Public
Records.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Police Department's request to lease two
(2) vehicles from Enterprise Leasing?
Recommendations:
Staff recommends the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Police Department's request to
lease two (2) vehicles from Enterprise Leasing.
