Priority 1TOTAL PROJECT COST 65,000Analysis and Explanation:The current fire detection system at Community Public Safety Police is old and has not functioned for the passed three (3) years. The City is no longer able to getparts to repair the existing system. The fire alarm system is not monitored by any alarm company which makes the building a danger to operate.Operational ImpactFire alarm system is critical for the safety of employees and protection of the facility. If fire occurs, it is believed that there is a fire suppression system, butnotification of fire is still critical for deployment of fire department and also to be in accordance with Fire codes.3514/7575 Replace Elevator and Operating System inPolice DepartmentGF 80,000 0 0 0 0 0If deferred: Other alternative are being sought. Priority 1TOTAL PROJECT COST 80,000Analysis and Explanation:During 2011 CPS - Police has had to make repeated service calls to Kone Elevator to make repairs to the elevator. Service calls are required due to the age of theelevator. The elevator's control system and door equipment have to be rebuilt. This cost nearly 80% of the total cost of a new elevator.Operational ImpactWithout this elevator, the Community Public Safety - Police will no longer be "handicapped accessible." It is the only access that is available to the second floorof the department for anyone confined to a wheelchair. This would violate state law.4480 Police Patrol Vehicles GF 286,280 0 294,868 303,714 312,825 322,209If deferred: Deferred due to fiscal constraints. Priority 1TOTAL PROJECT COST 1,519,896Analysis and Explanation:CPS - Police fleet consists of 33 vehicles. Fourteen (14) of the vehicles were purchased between 2002 & 2005. The average mileage is 100,000 miles. The agingfleet creates officer safety issues and requires greater repair costs. Due to the high mileage, maintenance costs have risen dramatically for the vehicles. On aweekly basis it is not unusual for 6-7 vehicles to be out of service for repairs. This has an operational impact, by creating the need to double officer's up, whichreduces visibility, and may slow response times.Operational ImpactIf patrol vehicles are not purchased on an annual basis, the fleet becomes old very quickly requiring many more vehicles to be purchased at once. Without newcars, the fleet will soon diminish to where officers will not have a car to check into service.TOTAL COMMUNITY PUBLIC SAFETY - POLICE1,779,896337
