21. AGREEMENT WITH US MARSHALS SERVICE FOR DISTRICT FUGITIVE APPREHENSION TASK FORCE ARIZONA WANTED FOR VEHICLE AND RELATED EXPENSES Approve a new agreement with the US Marshals Service for District Fugitive Apprehension Task Force Arizona Wanted whereby the US Marshals Office will purchase outright a new vehicle at a cost not-to-exceed $25,000. This vehicle will be titled to Maricopa County for designated use by the Adult Probation Department's Fugitive Apprehension Unit. Also approve a one-time addition to the County Fleet for this vehicle and an exemption from markings and issuance of non-government license plates per A.R.S. 38-538-03 because this vehicle will be used to apprehend fugitives and markings are detrimental to the mission. The vehicle information, including make, model, year, color and VIN number will be provided to the Clerk of the Board when received. This will be a take home vehicle because this is not a regularly scheduled assignment with set hours. This is a one-time addition to fleet and the Agreement has a provision that the vehicle remains County property following termination. This vehicle will be retired at the end of its useful life with no funding from the general fund for its replacement. The US Marshals Office will fund fuel costs of up to $6,000 and $5,000 to appropriately equip the vehicle for task force use. Any additional ongoing operational costs will be absorbed with Adult Probation's existing budget. Adult Probation's indirect cost rate for FY 2010 is 10%. This agreement does not allow for indirect cost recovery. Therefore, unrecoverable indirect costs on $11,000 are estimated to be $1,100.00. (C-11-10-003-M-00)
