19 Appendix A
Military
Equipment Report
Considerations:
The
Military Equipment Report equipment
inventory sheets contained within this document were
compiled near year-end 2021 and new-year 2022.
With respect to costs, funding, annual
maintenance
expenses,
and estimated effective lifespan,
every effort has been made to be as accurate as possible while at the same time acknowledging
that
many
factors
directly
affecting
those
aforementioned
values
and
fiscal
impacts
are
unpredictable.
Costs associated with the following items represent the best estimates at the time this document
was prepared. Many of these items are not purchased from manufacturers, but
through authorized
dealers,
who
adjust
costs
in
accordance
with
market
factors
beyond
the
predictive
abilities
or
control of Napa PD.
Due to the unpredictable nature of the law enforcement profession, many of the item estimated
maintenance
costs and effective lifespans are best estimates and may vary greatly on a year-to-
year basis, due to the availability of training, type of operational incidents,
or other factors.
“
Quantity
” refers to the
allocated
quantity needed “on hand” over the course of a
fiscal
year to
meet all reasonably-anticipated operational and training needs. Some items may be carried over
in inventory year-to-year depending on operational/training tempo
or anticipated item lifespan.
Additionally, there are costs for non-military
equipment that are intrinsically tied to the following
items. For example,
expenses for
carrying
slings, carrying cases, magazines, sighting systems,
flashlights, cleaning
supplies, batteries,
and other non-military
reportable items are not included
in the
listed
cost estimations, unit allocation,
or
maintenance
portions of this report.
It should also be noted that the
California State Legislature has designated these items
as “military
equipment”
pursuant to Government Code sections 7070-7075. While the
US
military may use
some of the same equipment, the
Napa
Police Department deems all of
these items
as
valuable
pieces
of
law
enforcement
equipment
that
would
be
used
to
help
respond
to
criminal
activity,
defuse
critical
incidents,
lessen
the
use
of
force,
or
aid
in
the
safety
of
our
community
and
employees.
We
welcome
our
community
members
to
ask
questions
and
engage
in
discussion
during
this
process.
