AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF ONE ADDITIONAL POLICE PATROL
VEHICLE AND FURTHER AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION OF

staff the Bicycle Patrol program and this unit will be used as a
back-up for the bicycle officers, and as an additional assigned vehicle

WHEREAS, the City of Lodi was authorized to purchase additional
patrol units from impact fees starting with the 1991-92 budget. Since
that time no additional officers have been hired until this year; and

of the City to continue to purchase Ford Crown Victoria's for use as
police patrol vehicles; and
WHEREAS, the City was previously notified that the Ford Motor
Company had set February 28, 1994 as the deadline to accept orders for
the .1994 Ford Crown Victoria police cars, but due to the manufacturer
accepting additional late orders, we are now able to make an additional
purchase.

four vehicles that were purchased prior to the February 28, 1994
deadline, and have the same specifications of our police Crown
Victorias presently in service. The cost of the vehicle is $16,757.53;
and
WHEREAS, safety and emergency equipment is required to equip
this vehicle for service, consisting of a back seat protective screen,

new Motorola Radio for a total amount of $24,927.53 ;
