DERYL LOAR, INDIANRIVER COUNTYSHERIFF <br /> OPTIONAL ONE CENT SALES TAX FUND <br /> Sheriff Deryl Loar recalled previous discussions with the Board about the possibility of <br /> using Optional One Cent Sales Tax revenues to upgrade his fleet of patrol cars . He provided <br /> background on capital expenditures for Fiscal Years 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 , and explained <br /> why he does not foresee sufficient funds for major capital expenditures in Fiscal Year 2011 - <br /> 2012 . He provided a status report on the current fleet of 165 marked patrol cars, and <br /> recommended purchasing the Crown Victoria police vehicles at this time, as they are being <br /> discontinued and other types of vehicles would have to be retrofitted at greater cost . Sheriff Loar <br /> thereafter asked the Board to authorize the purchase of nineteen marked patrol cars with <br /> $ 600, 000 of the Optional One Cent Sales Tax funds . <br /> Chairman Wheeler objected to the Sheriffs request for the Optional One Cent Sales Tax <br /> funds at this time, declaring that capital expense items should have been indicated in the <br /> proposed budget. He wanted to see the Sheriff s budget process amended to include capital <br /> expenses . <br /> Commissioner Solari requested that the Sheriff provide additional financial information, <br /> including actual , as well as projected, expenses in future budget reports . He stressed the need to <br /> receive the data in a timely manner so the Board can uphold its fiduciary responsibilities to the <br /> public. <br /> 'K 141 PG 7 9 9 <br /> December 20, 2011 9 <br />
