Vehicle Acquisition

Rentals

A rental is normally classified as a contractual arrangement for less than 60 days. Centers may use these arrangements to meet emergent or peak work-load requirements without regard to established vehicle allowances. Other customer requirements should also be met with rentals especially where utilization does not justify a full time assignment. The CTO shall be notified regarding all vehicle rentals and shall track the types, quantities, and duration of rentals in order to evaluate the need for additional vehicle resources for the Center.
