| | MANAGER'S REPORT:
Approximately seven years ago, the Juneau Police Department received a 1995 E-One Chevrolet Ambulance from Capital City Fire Rescue, which JPD has since used for its Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit. A recent bluebook quote for the vehicle was listed at $3300. JPD recently received a replacement ambulance from CCFR for the EOD unit and does not need both vehicles for police operations.
CBJ 53.50.220 provides that upon a determination that the best interests of the public would be served, surplus property with an estimated value of over $3,000 may be transferred to another governmental unit after approval by the Assembly by resolution.
JPD received a letter from Angoon Mayor Matthew Kookesh informing us that his community was in need of an ambulance and fire engine. Mayor Kookesh said Angoon only has one older ambulance, which is not equipped to allow for the provision of medical care; it is only capable of transporting.
Based on Mayor Kookesh's request, I am requesting that the City and Borough of Juneau donate the ambulance to the City of Angoon. | |
