In July 1990, the East Division Bicycle Unit was formed with the needed equipment purchased
from donations received from various groups in the community Donated funds to maintain
equipment are gone and the equipment has deteriorated to the point of being unsafe The
bicycles currently being used are approximately five years old and on different occasions
equipment failure has occurred while officers were riding on busy streets with heavy traffic
These funds will be used to replace seven bicycles and related equipment such as helmets,
gloves, goggles, tires, bike bags, and lighting systems
The new bicycles are specifically designed for police tactics and help to reduce the physical

strain while providing a higher level of safety for the officer

for the purchase of bicycles and related equipment will be available in the current operating
