DATE; Co^
March 23 , 1988 '
SUBJECT:
Marine Patrol Boat Acquisition
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTIONS
Authorize the Sheriff-Coroner, on behalf of the County, to enter
into an agreement with the California State Department of Boating and
Waterways for the purchase of a patrol boat and related equipment.
Authorize the Sheriff-Coroner, on behalf of the County, to make
and sign for any amendments to' the contract with the State which may come
about in the grant.
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT
The State would provide a financial aid grant totalling thirty
thousand dollars ( $30,000) to the County.
The estimated cost to replace a recently decommissioned patrol
boat assigned to the Sheriff ' s Marine Services Bureau is fifty-seven
thousand dollars ( $57,000) .
The Sheriff ' s Department has twenty-seven thousand dollars
($27 ,000) in a depreciation account on the recently decommissioned boat
( #8409) .
The cost to the County is estimated at twenty-seven thousand
dollars ( $27 , 000)
IIL. REASONS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
One patrol boat is being decommissioned and another boat is
needed to replace it.
Over the past few years the Board of Supervisors and the Sheriff
have made a strong commitment to the high level and quality of service to
the boating public. Now, that the U. S. Coast Guard has closed the nearest
station to Contra Costa County more service time will be .required of this
County. This will mean that the six patrol boats which the Sheriff has
will be needed even more.

The California State Department of Boating and Waterways has
committed a grant to the County to help keep this needed service. They
have in the past given grants on the five present Sheriff ' s patrol boats
which are operating.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
The decommissioned patrol boat needs a new engine at a cost of
eight thousand dollars ( $8,000) . It has five years of patrol work on it
now. It is not in condition to repair and then be used for patrol.
Any delay in replacing the decommissioned patrol boat will reduce
the Sheriff ' s Department' s ability to serve the public.
The State has the money now to grant to the County. The money
may not be available at a later date. The building time for a new boat is
from 90 to 100 days.
