2006 Harley Davidson Motorcycle <br /> Donahue sports out of St. Cloud and soon to be in Baxter is offering our <br /> department an opportunity to lease a Police Harley Davidson Motor Cycle <br /> for $1 per month for 12 months. At the end of the lease we can continue for <br /> an additional 12 months at $1 per month for the same bike or upgrade to a <br /> new 2007. <br /> The cost to equip the bike with necessary lights and radio, radar and officer <br /> helmet,jacket etc is between $35004000. This cost will be donated by a <br /> local business who has already offered to discuss this program. <br /> Officer Rich Hogan is certified with this motorcycle and has been a <br /> Motorcycle officer with Mille Lacs PD in the past. He will be the only <br /> officer authorized to operate this piece of equipment. <br /> Benefits to the department and community will be better mobility during <br /> events, such as parades, school events, crowded areas and also the <br /> availability to get up and down the Paul Bunyan Trail and down in around <br /> the resorts. The other benefit is for enforcement of traffic violators and <br /> speed enforcement. Not many travelers will be looking for a Police <br /> Motorcyle. <br /> The Public relations that this will create will be un-measureable. We will <br /> use this unit in local parades and events to promote our city and department. <br /> The cost savings of fuel will be substantial. This unit in police work is <br /> suppose to get around 45 mpg as to 12 mpg with a squad car. This will also <br /> save approximately 10,000 miles on Officer Hogan's Police Squad Car per <br /> year. When the squad car lease ends in 4 years, his car will have about V2 <br />
