The Police Department was <br />able to locate four (4) 2023 Ford F150s 44 that will be used by Uniform Patrol Supervisors. ThE <br />purchase of these vehicles will allow us to repurpose vehicles currently being used for newly hired <br />officers. Ford F150s were chosen because of their high ground clearance which will ensure units can <br />traverse the city during inclement weather. These vehicles are also able to drive on the beach easier <br />than other vehicles and will provide the ability to haul items which can be useful. These vehicles are <br />being purchased using Department of Justice forfeiture funds via the Charlotte County contract <br />#2021000541 for an amount not to exceed $232,149.56. <br />FUNDING SOURCE: <br />Department of Justice Forfeiture Funds 600-3-5210-464200-99504. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />Resolution <br />Quote A <br />Quote B <br />Item Number: 10.1) <br />
