a variety of items. These items are then made available to all communities statewide for
purchasing. This year, the contracts for vehicle purchase were awarded to Bob Ridings
Ford, Miles Chevrolet, and Landmark Ford
It is staff’s recommendation to approve the purchase of the following vehicles as detailed
in the Fiscal Year 2004/2005 budget:
