Subject: BUDGETED 2010 SQUAD PURCHASE
Authorized in the 2010 budget, was the purchase of three (3) replacement squad cars,
two of which were authorized by Council for purchase in October 2009 for 2010 use.
Ford Motor Company has just announced that the deadline for 2010 Crown Victoria
purchases will be May 29, 2010. The factories will be down for re- tooling for the 2011
models. It was originally intended to purchase the third squad (358) late in 2010 to be
utilized in 2011 and when it's replaced vehicle reached 100,000 miles.
In order to keep the 2010 pricing and avoid increased 2011 costs, we are requesting
authorization to purchase the third budgeted 2010 squad before the May 28, 2010
deadline and store it until the current Squad 358 reaches its mileage before changing
out.
I am recommending Council authorize the budgeted purchase of a third replacement
2010 crown Victoria squad car for $22,981.32 (via the State contract) through Elk River
Ford.
Thank you.
