Resolution Overview
OFFICER
AGENDA DATE: July 5, 2023
BACKGROUND: This request is for the purchase of a 2024 Ford Transit van. This
vehicle is to replace the 2008 Ford van we are using for our tactical operations. This
vehicle will provide a much better working environment with the addition of rear air
conditioning, a higher roof line, and a better door configuration for the rapid entry and
exit of fully outfitted operators. The van being used now will be transferred to the Crime
Scene unit for future use. The vehicle will be purchased from Shawnee Mission Ford
using the MARC cooperative contract. Funds for this request were approved in the
2023-2024 fiscal budget.
BUDGETARY IMPACT: $63,000
