MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM: Dave Ross, Police Chief
DATE: March 11, 2024
SUBJECT: Purchase of a Police Vehicle with Fleet Replacement Fund
This Resolution authorizes the purchase of one Ford Police Interceptor (SUV) for use as a police
vehicle. It authorizes the use of the City's Fleet Replacement Fund for this purchase. Additionally,
it authorizes the purchase of the vehicle through Kendal Ford, because they are able to give us
the Alaska State equipment fleet contract pricing for the selected vehicle. The cost of the vehicle
is $52,670.
In accordance with the City's fleet replacement plan, the police department was scheduled to
replace three police vehicles in FY24. The replacement plan calls for two trucks and one SUV to
be purchased in FY24. The State of Alaska fleet contract pricing was available in December on
the Ford Police Responders (Trucks), and they were ordered at that time after approval by the
Council. The Ford Police Interceptor recently became available under the State contract pricing,
and is the only pricing available under the Sate cotnrcat for police SUVs at this time.
KMC 7.15.070(b)(4) allows the City of Kenai to purchase equipment without giving an opportunity
for competitive bidding if the equipment is purchasable under the contract of another government
agency in which contract the City is authorized to participate.
Thank you for your consideration
