BACKGROUND As required by US Supreme Court Decisions and as identified as training needs for the City of Tukwila Police Department, the Firearms Unit conducts quarterly training sessions for the police Department. Each session requires ammunition, targets, target stands, cleaning supplies, repair equipment, tables, air compressor, portable generator, and other bulky equipment to be transported to the location of the firearms training. The transportation of this equipment is rorreoHvbaudled by loading and unloading into multiple vehicles to handle the task. DISCUSSION The e ipcucottraOerwou|dheutlioedhntbpPirearoznTraioingDoitosapdcnarysource but could also be used by SWAT and the Civil Disturbance Unit during their specialized training dates. The purchase of an equipment trailer is a cost effective way to secure and transport supplies and equipment to and from the range. Equipment could be stored in the trailer, saving on labor time of load and unload during each training session. Having this resource will help streamline the training day by having all that is needed for the quarterly session onboard. This provides a pool of resources that addresses storage, eliminates duplication and reduces staff time by eliminating many of the obstacles associated with providing firearms training. FINANCIAL IMPACT This project was ootior\uded in the 2013'2014 Budget. As an alternative we propose utilizing existing funds from the Police Department Fleet Services and funds provided through the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program. The estimated cost is $9600.00 (actual quote is $9490.60 FOB Olympia + $110 for additional costs). INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Funds would come from the following GL account lines: $8000.00 - Grant #2013-DJ-BX-0715 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program. $1600.00 - Remaining Police Department Fleet Services Budget Line (This line is currently under-budget and can easily absorb the expense.) Trailers have a lengthy life span. However, the need to replace the trailer will eventually come. The Police Department will be adding the trailer to the department's fleet and placed on the replacement schedule. With an anticipated 15 year cycle, and an estimated $10,000.00 replacement cost, a monthly replacement saving plan would run approximately $55.00 per month. (The savings in labor-hours of the load/unload over 15 years will more than compensate for the replacement.) RECOMMENDATION Tukwila Municipal Code 3.3ZO40 states "Any Onb capital equipment or fixed asset item, including components or services of items, shall be approved by the Mayor and three affirmative votes of the respective Council committee assigned to the requesting department. 'Fixed asset' items are d8fiDed8J costing 8tleast $5,000 and having a useful life of at least two years." The Police Department recommends the Finance and Safety committee authorize the Mayor to approve the purchase of a PD firearms equipment trailer not to exceed $9,600.00 using existing funds from the following: $8000.00 - Grant #2013-DJ-BX-0715 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program. $1600.00 -Police Department Fleet Services Budget Line.
