CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
ACTION REQUESTED:
title
Adopt the resolution authorizing the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Naperville and the Illinois Law Enforcement Alarm System (ILEAS) regarding the use and maintenance of a specialized vehicle
body
DEPARTMENT: Police Department
SUBMITTED BY: Jason R. Arres, Chief of Police
BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
ILEAS is a statewide law enforcement mutual aid organization that provides specialized resources, training, and equipment to member agencies. The Naperville Police Department (PD) is a member of ILEAS and has officers assigned to the Region IV WMD team as well as the Region III Mobile Field Force (MFF) team.
DISCUSSION:
Due to a change in Region III leadership and lack of storage space at the new agency, ILEAS has asked Naperville and other member agencies in the region to house vehicles for the Region III MFF team.
The Naperville Police Department has capacity to house a MFF vehicle at a City-owned facility. The proposed Intergovernmental Agreement outlines the respective responsibilities of ILEAS and the City of Naperville regarding the vehicle's care, usage, and availability for mutual aid.
While MFF callouts are the priority, as part of the agreement the PD would have access to this vehicle and allowed to use it when operationally necessary.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Vehicle repair and maintenance are expensed to the Equipment Maintenance account listed below. A total of $5000 is estimated for vehicle maintenance and repairs per year, but the benefits of housing this vehicle far outweigh the cost of maintenance.
