DISCUSSION The Santa Ana Police Department leases vehicles for field assignments for a variety of police personnel including the Personnel Department background investigators, training personnel and Investigation Department officers. On September 3, 2002, the City Council awarded a contract to Enterprise Fleet Services for a three-year period, with provision for one three- year renewal. The vendor has agreed to renew the contract for 2006 vehicles at lease rates that are a minimum of five percent less than the 2003 rates for the same models, a combination of Chevrolet Impala and Malibu sedans. Staff asked for a hybrid option for the new lease period. Current available hybrids on the market include the Toyota Prius, Honda Civic and Accord, and the SUV Ford Escape. According to the vendor, the 2006 Prius is not offered to commercial clients by Toyota and the Honda Civic and Accord hybrids are not available in quantity orders. However, the vendor did provide a quote for a comparable number of Ford SUV Escape Hybrids at $178,388 annually. The lease rate quoted is 48% higher than the Chevrolet Impala and 61% higher than the Chevrolet Malibu sedans. 22A-1 CS :.183
