27. ONE TIME ADDITION TO THE FLEET AND EXEMPTION FROM MARKINGS AND ISSUANCE OF NON-GOVERNMENTAL LICENSE PLATES Approve a one-time addition to the fleet of ten (10) vehicles. Four (4) of these vehicles will be purchased using one time funds that exist within this Department’s General Fund (Fund 100) at a cost not-to-exceed $100,000. Six (6) of these vehicles will be purchased using one time funds that exist within this Department’s Detention Fund (Fund 255) at a cost not-to-exceed $150,000. Also, approve an exemption from markings and issuance of non-governmental license plates per A.R.S. 38-538.03 because these vehicles will be used to provide surveillance and supervision of domestic violence offenders, sex offenders, and pretrial defendants on electronic monitoring. Markings are detrimental to the mission. These will be take home vehicles because surveillance is not a regularly scheduled assignment with set hours. The vehicle information, including make, model, year, color and VIN number will be provided to the Clerk of the Board upon approval of this agenda and purchase of the vehicles. FY2013-14 additional costs for operating expenses are estimated to be approximately $16,000 for the General Fund vehicles and $24,000 for the Detention Fund vehicles. These costs will be absorbed in the respective operating budgets. These vehicles will be retired at the end of their useful lives with no funding from the General Fund or the Detention Fund.
