apartment units. They are actually only requesting that 20 acres be zoned. The plan
is to build one story units spread out on the property. He indicated they are thinking
long term, and want it to look nice. He indicated the zoning board was concerned
about the entire tracts being zoned, but they want to only zone the 20 acres, the zoning
board would like for it to be replatted, but he knows pretty much where the property
is.

9. Consider and Possible Action on Presentation from Fire/Police Departments Regarding
Vehicles from Government Acquisitions, Inc.
David Pennington, Fire Chief, addressed this item. He indicated that this is part of
Homeland Security and it tries to provide vehicles for both the Fire Department and
the Police Departments. Both departments have already applied, and this contract was
sent to them. It is a lease agreement for $1.00 per year for three years, the company has
the right to place up to six decals on the car. There is no alcohol, tobacco or fire arms
advertising on the cars. He gave some of the businesses that could be advertised. The
advertisements are of a good nature. The contract can be broken at any time by either
party with a written thirty day notice, at the end of the contract they buy the car back
for $1.00. If they want another car, they can apply again. The vehicles come in with
all the equipment necessary. The departments do get to specify what type vehicle they
would want. Corinth has received thirteen vehicles through this program. There are
several other cities in the area that have applied. This was initiated by President Bush
after 941.
Discussion.
Police Chief Curtis Amyx indicated he has ten cars running at this time, the two he has
requested will replace the two 96 models with over 130,000 miles on them.
Discussed where logos would go.
Chief Pennington indicated they have already been approved at the first step, the next
step is to get Council approval, and then they would get City Attorney approval.
