Resolution Authorizing Lease of Police Car
At a regular meeting of the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger, Dutchess County,
New York, held at Town Hall, 20 Middlebush Road, Wappingers Falls, New York, on February
28, 2011.
The meeting was called to order by Christopher Colsey, Supervisor, and upon roll being

Joseph P. Paoloni (arrived at 8:13pm)
The following Resolution was introduced by Councilman Beale and seconded by
Supervisor Colsey.
WHEREAS, the Town of Wappinger owns a police car that is used by the Dutchess
County Sherriff s Office to Patrol the Town of Wappinger that is in need of repair, and, as the
cost of repair is too high, replacement is necessary; and
WHEREAS, it is more cost effective for the Town to lease a police car rather than buy a
police car, because the useful life of a police car is approximately four (4) years, which is the
term of the lease; and
WHEREAS, a lease of a police car is more economical than a purchase because the
lessor may take the depreciation of the police car as a tax deduction and the Town of Wappinger
may not, as it does not pay taxes; and
WHEREAS, The Cruisers Division, 420 Mount Pleasant Avenue, Mamaroneck, New
York, the agent for Country Ford Mercury, Inc., has submitted an estimate to lease a fully
equipped police car for $8,672.71 per year for four years with a $1.00 buyout at the end of the
lease term; and
WHEREAS, the lease agreement is approved as Westchester County Contract Number
8000013;and
WHEREAS, pursuant to General Municipal Law § 103(3) and County Law § 408-a, the
lease agreement is deemed to be the lowest bid and the Town of Wappinger is not required to
solicit competitive bids
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, as follows:
1. The recitations above set forth are incorporated in this Resolution as if fully set
forth and adopted herein.
2. The Town Board hereby authorizes the Supervisor to execute a four (4) year lease
contract with Country Ford Mercury, Inc., 5400 S. Division Street, Guthrie, OK,
73044, in accordance with the terms of the proposal submitted herewith by The
Cruisers Division.
The foregoing was put to a vote which resulted as follows:
