2019-01-24 (draft) Cost of Government Commission minutes

Home

Cost of Government Commission January 24, 2019 meeting minutes we are going to use the existing county garages. And that needs to be verified. For our additional maintenance personal $60,000 each that is $240,000 that reduces that savings. And then what I forgot to add in is parts and supplies. Well filters, air filters, oil you know things like that. So we need to put that in there. Based on this probably like $838,000 annual savings. And I don’t know I just picked 10 years so that is easy to figure out. So the assumptions each shift uses the same vehicle if someone brings in a personal vehicle or just dropped off or uses uber and takes a fleet vehicle and goes out comes back it is a great (?) vehicle, they park it for the fleet vehicle. So there shouldn’t be a parking issue. I don’t know the distribution based on the report of vehicles by officers like for instance Naha Leihu they have 4 well you kind of have to have at least 1 vehicle you can’t have half of a vehicle as a spare. So if we need to quantify that um. Cruisers (?) without safety features mainly SUV types that’s normally how the county is. Support and detective native Sudan’s that would reduce the cost at large. And of course our proposal would be for this to be phased in over a period of time I don’t know I would use 3-5 years. We can qualify for our benefits but that would significantly improve safety for the officers obviously save money for us counting tax payers. Larger vehicles can accommodate 3 or 4 more officers if they need to go out in fours right now the four runners. Hyundai’s you can hardly get 1 person in them. And then of course as I mentioned we need to add the benefits of state and federal subsidies that we could probably get. And a we need to reduce that savings by the parts and supplies which I was going to estimate $100 a month so $1200 a year times 162 vehicles that’s an average. I am not sure what is going to happen if a vehicle get damaged or destroyed in a line of duty if there is insurance for that to replace it. (?). You don’t know if there is anything in the, what do you call it? collective party uh union details I have not asked for that, that is something that the chief of police needs to figure that out. Jones: It is my understanding from (?) council that there is wiggle room for change. That is my understanding which is why I think the is absolutely about recommendation Buehler: (?) get the assumptions card, a little more accurate. (9:22): The benefit of improved visibility um I don’t know how many people have heard people say on work well there is no police on here. Until the lights are flashing. (Crosstalk) (9:34): They even trumped the lights down, Why don’t they have them on all the time I don’t understand (Crosstalk) (9:43): I took the guy to the airport in Kona it was the president of the police union in San Francisco.
