Request to purchase the final 2003 Squad car
Earlier this year we delayed the purchase of a fifth police vehicle until we knew what the
2003 budget impacts from the state would be. We are now aware of those cuts and are
asking to purchase the fifth police vehicle. We are seeking to replace our K-9 squad which
has very high miles and is frequently broken down.
The K-9 car currently has 127,610 miles on it and has suffered transmission failure, major
engine trouble and electrical problems. When that squad is down, we don't have a spare K-9
car so our canine is out of service until the handler gets the vehicle back. I am asking to
replace this aging vehicle with a new squad, which would have a life expectancy of 5-6 years.
Currently we switch out the K-9 car with one of the better-used cars every two years. That is
a great deal of work and expense and always leaves us with a car in poor condition after the
first year. I had Bob Mahutga pull the repair record on this vehicle. We have spent $5,974 in
repairs in the past 36 months on this squad. He predicted that his shop could make this car
last another 23,000 miles, but that by 150,000 miles this vehicle will be very tired.
I have located a 2003 Ford Crown Victoria at Superior Ford for $21,313. This is the State
Contract price. We would have to add black accent paint for an additional cost of $1,500 -
1,800 and decals for $470. Set-up is estimated to be in the area of $1,000. Total cost for the
car is then approximately $24,583.
There are only two squad cars left to be purchased in the upper Midwest. Any other squads
will have to be ordered in the 2004 fleet order through Ford and won't be delivered until
next year.
I am requesting that the Council authorize the purchase out of the remaining equipment
certificates. Our fifth vehicle was originally planned to be a truck for our truck enforcement
position. Since that position has been eliminated that truck is no longer needed. Purchasing a
squad instead is a savings of almost $30,000.
