INFORMATION: The Carrboro Police Department received a donation of the use of a Ford fifteen-passenger van from University Ford of Chapel Hill. In a letter to the Police Department, University Ford wishes to donate the use of a van for the Carrboro Police Summer Camp for teens, being held June 25 - 29, 2018. The summer camp is held to expose those who have an interest in law enforcement, to learn about the different roles of law enforcement officers and agencies in the triangle. This donation will allow the Police Department’s staff to transport participants of the camp safely to different education venues.
University Ford will be added as an additional insured under the Town’s current policy for the use of the van during the summer camp.
FISCAL & STAFF IMPACT: The rental fee of $535.96 for the passenger van will be waived. The only cost to the Town will be for fuel, which will be covered in our existing budget.
RECOMMENDATION:r Town Staff recommend that the Board of Aldermen consider adopting the attached resolution.
