Purpose

Annual purchase of replacement squads

Background

Each year the Sauk County Sheriff’s Office replaces squads that have high mileage in order to avoid increased maintenance costs.  The old squads are traded into reduce the costs of the replacement squads.  We are replacing eight marked squads and purchasing one new marked squad for the Sergeant position that was ended for July of 2018.  During Finance hearings we were advised that the one new squad would be purchased with carry over funds from the 2017 Sheriff’s Budget.  We will also be replacing two unmarked squads and one prisoner transport van; again the squads being replaced have high mileage.
