I would ask that you <br />place this proposal on the next commission consent <br />agenda. This is the largest passenger bus that one can <br />operate without the need for commercial licenses. <br /> <br />$50,000 was budgeted for this purpose and the price of <br />the vehicle is $49,170 with a membership to the MN <br />Cooperative Purchasing Venture an additional $500, <br />bringing the total price of the vehicle to $49,670.00. <br /> <br />I have been told that our county will see a considerable <br />savings by purchasing from the Minnesota State Contract <br />as their volume is so much greater than in North Dakota. <br /> <br />We are requesting a white Ford/Eldorado 450/240 with no <br />side windows, small skylight windows for natural light, <br />wheelchair lift and wire mesh separating the driver/guard <br />from the inmates. The complete specs are attached. <br /> <br />Sample Motion: <br /> <br />Move to authorize the county to purchase a transport bus for <br />use by the County Jail at a cost of $49,670.00. <br /> <br />Respectfully, <br /> <br />Captain Glenn Ellingsberg <br />Cass County Sheriff's Office <br /> <br />CC. <br /> <br /> 211 9th St. S. <br /> Box 488 <br />Fargo, North Dakota 58107.0488 <br />www. co.cass.nd.us/sheriff <br /> <br />Sheriff Rudnick <br />Bonnie Johnson <br />Joyce Schepp <br /> <br /> <br />
