RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriations and Revenue Adjustment No. 5033 authorizing the transfer of appropriations in the amount of $39,100 from the Sheriff's Office (0255) to Public Works-Fleet Replacement (0064) for the purchase of a vehicle for the Special Operations Division.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action increases appropriations in Public Works - Fleet Replacement (0064) and reduces appropriations in the Office of the Sheriff (0255) by $39,100. No change in net county cost.

BACKGROUND:

Since the creation of the Sheriff's Special Operations Division in January, 2014, the Captain's position of this division has been without suitable transportation. The assigned Captain has had to borrow cars from other divisions to meet his transportation needs during this time. The current Captain has approved the use of funds from his division to purchase a new 2015 Ford Taurus sedan. Since the assigned driver will be a sworn law enforcement officer, the vehicle needs to be outfitted with the appropriate emergency equipment.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Appropriations required to purchase the vehicle will not be in place in the Public Works department.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
