Rupf, Sheriff-Coroner Costa DATE: April 15, 2008 Pk County )q COUIZ"�� SUBJECT: Appropriation Adjustment SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE Appropriation Adjustment #50q7 authorizing the transfer of appropriations in the amount of $18,730 from the Office of the Sheriff (0255) to General Services, Fleet Operations (0063) to fund the upgrade to the Chevrolet Tahoe from the Crown Victoria for the Office of the Sheriff K-9 Patrol. II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This action increases appropriations in General Services, Fleet Operations (0063) and reduces appropriations in Office of the Sheriff (0255) by $18,730. There is no additional net county cost. III. BACKGROUND: The Office of the Sheriff normally uses Ford Crown Victorias for routine patrol. Although the Crown Victoria is adequate in this role, it lacks the capacity to accommodate the additional demands of a K-9 and their required operational/training equipment. In addition, current K-9 units require the dog to occupy the space normally used for the vehicle's rear seat by replacing the seat with a flat platform. This eliminates the ability of a Deputy Sheriff to detain the suspect inside their K-9 vehicle. The larger Tahoe platform will address all of the Ford Crown Victoria's shortcomings and can be configured to provide separate areas for the canine, the required patrol/canine equipment and a secure seat/compartment to detain a suspect. The ability to safely secure a suspect inside the vehicle will greatly enhance the safety of the citizens and our employees. Replacement of like vehicles is funded by the Internal Service Fund. The additional amount to upgrade from Crown Victorias to Chevrolet Tahoes needs to.be funded by the Office of the Sheriff.
