From the meeting
At its October 6, 2026 meeting, the board approved fundraising for a future Sherp multi-purpose emergency response vehicle and also approved the consignment sale of a 2013 airboat. The resolution says the Sheriff's Office is evaluating the Sherp for emergency and public safety response and expects about $30,000 to $40,000 more will be needed. This is an open planning lead with a defined vehicle type and funding gap.
The next useful conversation is with the Sheriff's Office about the acquisition timeline and any upfit or support needs.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
