APPROVED FISCAL YEAR 2022 BUDGET

DEPARTMENT DESCRIPTION

he Fleet Services Division is committed to maintaining, repairing, and replacing city

T vehicles and equipment in a timely and cost-effective manner so as to prevent inter-

ruptions in city services. The Fleet Services Division follows a replacement schedule to

determine vehicle depreciation and estimate service life. During the vehicle’s service life,

all parts, fuel and repairs are tracked. Each year during the budget process, all vehicles are

evaluated based on their age, mileage, and maintenance and repair costs. Following this

evaluation process, the necessary vehicles are budgeted to be replaced in the upcoming

fiscal year. After vehicles are approved for replacement, Fleet Services staff examine them

to determine if any equipment can be reused, in an effort to lower costs.
