9. REPLACEMENT OF FLEET VEHICLES AND EXEMPTION FROM MARKINGS Pursuant to A.R.S. § 38-538-03 and §28-2511(A), approve the issuance of non-governmental license plates and exemptions from county markings for six (6) undercover vehicles. These vehicles are replacing six (6) vehicles that are used for law enforcement investigative purposes. Vehicle details and identification numbers will be kept on file according to LAPR retention guidelines: with the Clerk of the Board. These vehicles were purchased in accordance with Maricopa County’s vehicle replacement process. The replacement was acquired using General Government (Agency 470) General fund (100) monies through the Equipment Services department. These replacements were deemed critical by equipment services due to excessive mileage and/or the age of the vehicle which made it cost prohibitive to acquire replacement parts with which to maintain the vehicle. As this action involves the replacement of existing vehicles in the fleet, expenditures for the operation and maintenance of the vehicles will continue to be absorbed by the County Attorney's general fund budget with zero net impact. As the vehicles being replaced are currently exempt from markings and governmental license plates, the Maricopa County Attorney's Office requests that the replacement vehicles purchased also be exempt from County markings and issued regular Arizona license plates as provided in accordance with A.R.S. § 38-538.03 and A.R.S. § 28-2511(A). This will ensure that they can be used in furtherance of their law enforcement mission. (C-19-17-046-M-00)
