Resolution for the Purchase o
an Investigative vehicle
It is respectfully recommended that a resolution be passed for
the purchase of an Investigative vehicle at an estimated cost of
$103,400. Funding is to be from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund.
The Miami Police Department is committed to the detection and
apprehension of individuals involved in criminal activity. In
order to conduct investigations effectively it is necessary for
the officers to maintain surveillances and also to provide
undercover support for patrol units. The requested vehicle will
provide the officers a greater degree of safety both from being
detected and, if detected, for protection. The cost of the
vehicle includes all of the preparation and equipment needed and
also the first year's storage and maintenance costs.
It is, therefore, recommended that the Resolution authorizing
the purchase of an Investigative vehicle, at an estimated cost of
$103,400, funding to be from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund,
Project No. 690001, Index Code 029002-247, be approved.
