RECOMMENDATION(S):

RATIFY the Fire District's execution of the Agreement for Transfer of Surplus Vehicle with San Bernardino County Fire Protection District, accepting the transfer of a 2007 Crew Carrier Vehicle at no cost to the Fire District.

FISCAL IMPACT:

As the vehicle is being donated to the Fire District at no cost, there is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

BACKGROUND:

The District has a need for a crew carrier vehicle for its hand crew program. The San Bernardino County Fire Protection District (SBCFPD) has a crew carrier vehicle for which it no longer has use and has offered to transfer its surplus crew carrier vehicle to the District, at no cost, in consideration for the District (1) acknowledging that the surplus property is provided in "as is" condition and without warranty; (2) inspecting the vehicle prior to use; (3) accepting all liability and costs associated with the surplus property; (4) cooperating with the transfer of title of the surplus property; and (5) collaborating with SBCFPD when responding to declared fire emergencies throughout California.

In order to meet the deadline imposed by San Bernardino County Fire Protection District, the District executed the agreement on December 8, 2022 and is requesting the Board to ratify the execution of this agreement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The District would miss the opportunity to acquire, at no cost, a crew carrier vehicle that is needed for its hand crew program.
