Title
Sheriff’s Office recommending the Board ratify Contract 3050, with the City of South Lake Tahoe for the lease of Hangar space used by the Sheriff's Office Search and Rescue unit in the approximate amount of $6,000 annually.
FUNDING: General Fund.
Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
El Dorado County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue division has been leasing hangar space at the South Lake Tahoe Airport since July 2017 for the storage of search and rescue equipment. This lease allows for the safe and secure storage of equipment critical to Search and Rescue which had been previously stored outdoors thereby subjecting the equipment to weather degradation and potential theft. This site also allows for 24-hour, 365-day access as the airport maintains snows removal in the winter, and access to the hangers are keycard protected, adding another layer of security to mission critical equipment.
The Board is asked to ratify the lease because as a real property lease, it should have been executed by the Board of Supervisors, rather than the Purchasing Agent.
The Sheriff's Office has been working with CAO Facilities and has notified Procurement regarding moving this lease agreement through the approval process.
