16. ADDITIONS TO FLEET OF TWO VANS Approve a one-time addition to fleet of a 2011 one-ton cargo van estimated to cost $26,185. Inmate Services (Canteen) funds (252) will be used to purchase and operate this vehicle. Annual operating costs are estimated to be $2,500 per year because it only travels between jail facilities. This is a one-time addition to fleet and will retired at the end of its useful life with no funding from the general fund or detention fund for its replacement. Also approve a permanent addition to fleet of a transport van for aviation extradition estimated to cost $30,000. This vehicle will be initially purchased from Sheriff's budgeted Detention Funds (255). It replaces a vehicle purchased several years ago with Jail Enhancement Funds and that vehicle has outlived its useful life. The purpose of this vehicle is to transport prisoners from local air fields to detention facilities. The annual operating cost is estimated to be $3,800. Approval of this item allows Equipment Services to proceed with procurement. An exception to purchase capital equipment has been approved by the Office of Management and Budget for the Canteen van and the exception for the aviation extradition van is in progress.
