Purchasing Agent
Statement of the Matter
The Council directed the Purchasing Agent - to seek information on rental
or'l:.asing of a powerboat for use by the Carlsbad Police Department 'in
patrolling Agua Hedionda Lagoon.. Three San Diego, one Vista and two
Oceanside boat dealers were contacted. None of them rent or lease boats
nor can they recommend anyone who does.'.The primary reason for not
renting or.leasing boats is the high cost of insurance to the owners.
The City -now has two alternatives. First, rent or lease from an
individual•using .the City insurance company to provide coverage. 'Two.,
purchase of a boat. The Purchasing Agent is in the process of°getting
prices at this time i,f the Council desires to purchase a boat.

Staff Recommendations
