FROM: WARREN E. RUPF, Sheriff-Coroner Contra
Costa
DATE: March 8, 1994 cougy
SUBJECT: Marine Patrol Boat Repair
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION: ' Authorize the Sheriff-Coroner on
behalf of the County to enter into a contract with the California
State Department of Boating and Waterways for a grant. of
$20, 060. 00. This money will be used to repair three (3) Mar'.ne
Patrol Boats, and repower/convert one (1) Patrol boat to an
inboard-outboard.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The State would provide a Federal
Financial grant not to exceed $20, 000.00.
Acceptance of this grant would create no negative financial impact
to the County.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: The California
State Department of Boating and Waterways provides Patrol boats
through a grant(s) to the County. The State retains ownership but
requires the County to maintain them as a stipulation of the
grant(s) .
Presently, the Sheriff's Office has four (4) State-owned Patrol
boats. These boats range from six to eight years in age and have
in excess of 2, 000 hours of operation. Two of the boats are
inoperative and require extensive mechanical repair work to be
returned to service. The two remaining boats currently utilized
are often unavailable due to constant breakdowns.
Fiscal constraints in the Sheriff's Patrol budget have prevented
the major repairs necessary to have all boats operational. In
order to maintain the services Marine Patrol provides, it is
necessary that all Patrol boats be operational.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Any delay in repairing
the four (4) Patrol Boats will severely reduce the Sheriff's
Office's ability to maintain an adequate patrol force.
The State has the money now to grant to the Count a money may
not be available at a later date.
