Reportedly.
B
Honorable
mayor
and
city
council
members,
thank
you
for
your
time.
When
I'm
finished
my
understanding,
the
city
manager
will
also
address
the
subject.
I'm
here
tonight,
direct
men
versus
the
three
pieces
of
equipment
versus
a
patrol
vehicle
for
our
Police
Department.
The
Department
maintains
a
fleet
of
14
patrol
vehicles
and
typically
replaces
two
to
three
a
year,
because
the
unique
demands
placed
on
these
patrol
vehicles,
you
require
an
aggressive
replacement
schedule
and
are
removed
from
service
when
they
attain
a
mileage
between
80
and
90
thousand.
B
We
currently
do
not
have
any
vehicles
in
reserve
and
anticipate
the
replacement
one
before
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year.
The
next
piece
of
equipment
is
a
parking
enforcement
vehicle.
The
police
department
has
2
parking
enforcement
vehicles
that
are
used
for
parking
and
street
cleaning
enforcement.
The
existing
vehicle
is
a
2000
go
for
that
was
originally
scheduled
to
be
replaced
in
June
of
2006
daily
stopping
go
low,
speed
driving
has
taken
its
toll,
and
at
this
time
the
vehicle
needs
a
replacement
engine
as
well
steering
and
suspension
work
after
completing
this
repair.
B
B
The
final
piece
of
equipment
is
a
thermoplastic
pre,
melter,
trailer
and
operator
propelled
thermoplastic
applicator.
This
will
replace
the
paint
track
that
we
currently
use
at
this
time.
State
staff
paint
street
markings
such
as
crosswalks
limit
lines
and
legends.
These
markings
should
be
repainted
every
of
the
year,
but
the
last
few
years,
less
time
has
been
a
lot
lauded
for
painting
and
the
time
has
been
extended
at
the
time
of
the
painting.
Part
of
the
road
must
be
closed
to
traffic,
so
the
paint
can
dry.
B
The
paint
can
direct
generally
be
tracked
over
in
about
two
hours.
Therefore,
the
road
is
left,
half
open
for
two
hours
before
the
staff
returns
and
reopens
the
road
and
the
other
half
of
the
street
is
ready
to
be
painted
there
in
a
time.
The
road
is
closed.
A
staff
person
must
remain
on
site
for
public
safety
with
us,
with
thermoplastic
staff
will
apply
markings
to
the
whole
intersection
and
by
the
time
the
equipment
is
back
on
the
trailer
the
road
is
reopened
to
traffic.
B
The
unit
will
make
staff
more
efficient
and
free
up
time
for
other
needs.
It
applies
in
about
half
the
time
of
paint
knowing
the
challenges
of
the
budget
and
the
current
financial
concerns.
The
department
revisited
this
purchase
with
another
car
aspetta
to
review
that
confirm
the
overall
cost
savings
and
believes
this
is
the
most
a
cost
cost
effective
way
to
address
our
street
marking
needs.
B
There
are
65
thousand
dollars
approved
in
the
09
10
Street
division
budget
from
a
special
dedicated
transportation
fund
for
this
purchase,
and
the
remaining
balance
will
be
paid
out
of
the
38,000
available
in
the
equipment
reserved
for
the
replacement
of
the
1993
Chevrolet
paint
truck
that
will
no
longer
be
needed.
The
parking
enforcement
vehicle
is
fully
funded
in
the
equipment
reserve
and
the
police
patrol
vehicle
was
funded
in
the
current
fiscal
budget.
As
with
all
new
equipment,
we
recommend
staff
referred
reviewed
opportunities
to
reduce
our
impact
on
the
environment.
B
Nothing
more
invited
environmentally
suitable
was
found
for
a
patrol
vehicle,
and
although
the
maker
of
the
parking
forcement
vehicle
is
planning
on
a
hybrid
vehicle
in
the
future,
there's
nothing
available
at
this
time.
Switching
to
thermal
plastic,
however,
will
eliminate
110
gallons
of
hazardous
waste
that
we
now
generate
every
year.
In
addition
to
that,
we
would
reduce
the
fleet
by
one
vehicle
and
reduce
the
number
of
dry
miles
driven
for
street
marketing
by
50%
I
appreciate
your
time
and
can
take
any
questions
any.
C
Just
wanted
to
comment
and
reinforce
some
statements
that
mr.
Lin
made
in
his
presentation
specifically
having
to
do
with
the
cost
of
the
vehicles
and
the
need
to
replace
them.
Given
our
current
budget
and
fiscal
situation,
as
indicated,
the
pink
truck
replacement
vehicle
is
substantially
funded
by
restricted
dedicated
funds,
while
those
funds
could
be
used
for
another
purpose,
it
is
increasingly
difficult
for
the
city
to
meet
its
maintenance
of
effort
requirements
which
prompt
us
in
part,
in
addition
to
the
benefits
that
this
piece
of
equipment
is
mr.
C
Lind
clearly
identified
prompt
us
to
recommend
this
to
you
as
a
viable
and
important
purchase.
I
would
just
simply
identify
for
the
City,
Council
and
publix
benefit
that
we
have
not
ignored
the
city's
budget
challenges
but,
in
fact,
have
scrutinized
these
recommendations
very
carefully
both
of
the
department's
level
as
well
as
at
my
level.
Before
bringing
this
recommendation
forward
to
you
and
I.
I
would
say
that
at
this
point,
if
the
city
council
intends
that
we
will
continue
the
services
that
these
vehicles
support,
then
I
would
recommend
that
these
are
necessary
purchases.
Thank
you.
Questions.
D
Of
us,
that's
my
brows
are
thank
you.
I
was
I
was
actually
pleased
to
hear
that
the
the
police
vehicle
is
is
going
to
be
a
flex-fuel
vehicle
and,
although
I
don't
think,
we
have
provisions
for
providing
ethanol
for
the
police
fleet,
it
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction
and
it
gives
us
at
least
that
option
in
the
future.
E
F
F
B
G
Action
I:
do
you
appreciate
staffs
comments
and
I
know
what
I
had
asked
several
questions
earlier
in
light
of
our
budget
in
our
situation,
I
appreciate
the
responses
and
I
do
see
that
there
was
a
concerted
effort
made
for
extending
the
life
of
the
current
vehicles
and
obviously
we
need
to
need
to
have
one
reserved
in
the
police
situation
etc.
So
I
do
appreciate
the
additional
feedback
that
I
received.
That
makes
me
comfortable
enough
to
introduce
the
resolution
authorizing
the
award
of
the
contracts.
