Background and Discussion: The Sheriff's Office is retiring marked patrol unit 5707/FA# 302683, which has just been replaced for 2021. Instead of sending the retired vehicle to a public auction, the Sheriff's Office wants to support our community partners by selling the used vehicle to the Town of Bennett, for which the Sheriff's Office provides contract law enforcement services. The Town of Bennett, a small local entity that lacks funding for buying this vehicle new, is implementing a "Community Services Officer" position to assist law enforcement in handling low-level, routine duties which are very similar to the Sheriff's Office Community Services Specialist position. The creation of this position will assist the Sheriff's Office in providing high quality services by reducing the workload and potentially response times for Deputies. The vehicle Bennett would like to acquire for this position is marked patrol unit 5707, a 2017 Interceptor SUV with 61K miles. The estimated auction value of this vehicle is estimated at $10,500 - $12,000 by David Wiley at Roller Auctions
