RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY AUTHORIZING THE ACCEPTANCE OF A VEHICLE
FROM "THE MILE OF CARS" FOR USE BY THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IN THE
D.A.R.E. PROGRAM
WHEREAS, the National City Police Department and the Mile of Cars have been
working together to create an agreement whereby the Mile of Cars will furnish a leased vehicle
to the City of National City for use by the Police Department's Community Services Unit as a
D.A.R.E. (Drug Awareness and Resistance Education) vehicle. D.A.R.E. programs across the
nation have effectively utilized specially painted and decaled police vehicles to promote the
D.A.R.E. program; and
WHEREAS, the Mile of Cars has graciously offered to lease a vehicle at their
expense and furnish it to the City of National City for use as a D.A.R.E. police vehicle. After the
end of the three-year lease agreement the vehicle will be returned to the Mile of Cars in good
condition. The Mile of Cars intends the vehicle to be a 2002 PT Cruiser, a vehicle that fits well
with the sporty hot rod tradition of D.A.R.E. vehicles.
WHEREAS, the City of National City will be responsible for vehicle
maintenance, extra miles over lease agreement (15 cents per mile over 36,000 miles), insurance
and exterior restoration prior to return to Mile of Cars at end of lease.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
National City hereby accepts a vehicle from the Mile of Cars for use by the Police
Department in the D.A.R.E. program, agrees to hold the Mile of Cars harmless from liability
arising from the Police Department's use of the vehicle, and directs the Chief of Police to
execute all necessary documents pertaining to the acceptance of said vehicle.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 3rd day of September 2002.
