Nicole, presenting the request, said the vehicle will replace a department unit that was totaled after being rear-ended. She said insurance has estimated a $10,249 payout; the committee was told the remaining cost would need to be found in the general fund because the purchase was not budgeted.
Committee members asked whether equipment could be transferred from the totaled vehicle to the new model; presenters said some equipment can be moved but much will not transfer to the new vehicle.
A committee member moved to approve the purchase; another member seconded. After an aye vote, the motion passed. The presenter said the vehicle is currently on a dealer lot and is awaiting the committee’s authorization to proceed under the statewide contract.
Next steps: staff will finalize procurement and confirm insurance settlement details and the funding source for the remaining balance.
