Council approves five-year fleet lease; staff packet figures flagged for clarification
Summary
Council approved a five-year lease with Enterprise Fleet Management for fleet replacement, approving the motion on a 6–yes vote. Staff said the lease will replace older high-maintenance vehicles; figures printed in the staff remarks/packet appear to contain typographical inconsistencies and staff will provide corrected figures.
City staff presented and the council approved a five-year lease agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management to replace aging city vehicles and reduce maintenance costs. Staff said the package would replace older, high-maintenance vehicles, improve fuel economy, and that funding is available through the vehicle replacement program with future years funded through annual transfers.
"The new lease vehicles replace older, high maintenance vehicles, reducing repair cost and improving fuel economy," Assistant City Manager Saint George said. The staff packet includes specific dollar figures and an estimated proceeds figure for the sale of old vehicles, but several numbers quoted aloud and in the packet appear inconsistent or truncated; staff indicated funding is available and will post corrected, detailed cost figures for public record.
The council approved the lease motion on a 6–yes roll call. Staff said Enterprise will handle sale of old vehicles and that net proceeds are expected to be returned to the city; follow-up materials with corrected totals will be posted by staff.
