Statement of the :ratter : At the City Council meeting of Marcii'7, 1972
this department was asked to further justify a'request to reallocate capital
outlay funds for the lease of a Ford, 12 passenger Club Wagon which would
be *utilized primarily by.the Recreation Division of this department. We
were further asked to investigate the purchase price of the wagon, as well
'as the lease and purchase price of a Volkswagon Bus for purposes of com-
parison. The Purchasing'Department•has•provided the requested bids for
your review", though we still favor the leasing of the Ford Club Wagon
becaVse of cash flow, carrying capacity, dependability and availability
of service.
We have checked with neighboring recreation departments and replies follow.
