Mounds View City Council February 12, 2007 Regular Meeting Page 16 Chief Sommer indicated there are 19. Council Member Flaherty asked how many police vehicles. Chief Sommer explained that the City has 10. Council Member Flaherty indicated that he went out and looked at the car and it has 78,000 miles which is not a lot, but he was not aware of the report from the mechanic. Council Member Stigney asked why a squad car that is coming out of service could not be used. Chief Sommer indicated that the plan is to use a squad as a public service officer vehicle and the age of the cars are due for replacement, so it is not a wise choice to make a car not recommended, to keep as a vehicle for the investigators. Council Member Stigney said that in this case he sees the case for replacement, but he would like to look at other options like using a squad that is coming out of service. Chief Sommer said that they have the longest replacement cycle of any department that he is aware of. ~ MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Hull.
