Funding for the lease is included in the Fiscal Year 2029-2022 budget. This equipment will be lease financed such that the County will own the equipment at the end of the five year lease, We respectfully request that this resolution be waived from the Council's Finance Committee and be placed on the February 23, 2022 Council agenda in order to expedite the procurement of this equipment.
