City <br /> Pett ? AGENDA ITEM #8.1 <br /> Lakes <br /> REPORT TO <br /> CITY COUNCIL <br /> Report Prepared by: Sergeant Chad Turcotte <br /> Date: January 6, 2015 <br /> Subject: Request Authorization to purchase a 2015 Chevy <br /> Tahoe. <br /> Report: The Police Department needs to replace one of <br /> our older police squad cars. Three of our current squad <br /> cars have over 100,000 miles on them. <br /> The police department would like to replace one of the <br /> current SUV's with a Chevy Tahoe. The initial cost is <br /> approximately $8,000 more than a Ford Explorer. At this <br /> time there are no recent comparisons for sales of the police <br /> Ford Explorer, however recent Tahoe sales have been at <br /> approximately $15,000 and the typical police sedan at <br /> $3,000. The police department recognizes there is a <br /> slightly higher initial additional expense but a much greater <br /> resale value when the Tahoe is retired from service. <br />
