Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM:
David Ross — Police Chief
DATE:
August 29, 2022
SUBJECT:
Ordinance No. 3310-2022, Forfeited Vehicle
The Kenai Police Department participates in the regional drug task force. The Department has
consistently been able to get and replace the vehicles for use in that task force through State
Forfeiture. Accepting this forfeiture vehicle will allow the replacement of a high mileage vehicle.
This forfeited vehicle may be put to use or traded for a vehicle that best suits the needs of the
Department. The estimated value of the vehicle is approximately $30,000, and it will be
transferred to the City at no cost.
I am respectfully requesting consideration of the ordinance accepting this vehicle forfeiture from
the State.
