Desert Strategic Plan, specifically under Prioritv 1: Enhance the delivery of public safetv
services. The priority's strategy is to expand the existing superlative services provided
by the fire and police departments to address future growth and safety concerns. By
providing access to the needed vendors and services indicated within this report, the
Police and Fire Departments can effectively carry out their missions.
Background
The Palm Desert Municipal Code allows staff to expedite purchases by preparing a list
of authorized vendors for specialty equipment and services. Many of the purchases are
for repairs of equipment and specialty services critical for providing life/safety operations
where obtaining price quotes is unfeasible (e.g. trauma scene clean-up/restoration,
blood draws, sexual assault examinations, K-9 veterinary care, chemical laboratory
testing services, and Traffic Team equipment calibration).

Department to service their related equipment owned by the City, as well as purchasing
certain specialty equipment and services as needed. No additional funds are requested
as these items are included in the FY 2019/20 budget.
