Colorado Springs Police Ask City For Additional $1.1m For New Vehicles

Colorado Springs Police Chief Pete Carey is asking the City Council to more than double the cash dedicated to replacing his fleet this year. Already, more than a quarter of the department's motorcycles, cruisers and other vehicles have surpassed their suggested lifespans and the others are only getting older and more worn, Carey told the council Monday as he requested a $1.1 million supplemental appropriation from the general fund. The department has $950,000 from its 2018 budget to replace the oldest of its about-600-vehicle fleet, Carey said.
