Utah Admin. Code R27-4-6 - Vehicle Feature and Miscellaneous Equipment Upgrade
(1) Any additional vehicle features or
miscellaneous equipment added to vehicle which increase the overall cost of the
vehicle shall be deemed vehicle feature and miscellaneous equipment upgrades. A
feature or miscellaneous equipment upgrade occurs when an agency requests:
(a) that a replacement vehicle have a
non-standard feature. For example, when an agency requests that an otherwise
standard replacement vehicle have a diesel rather than a gasoline engine;
or
(b) the installation of
additional miscellaneous equipment is not installed by the vehicle
manufacturer. For example, when an agency requests that light bars or water
tanks be installed on an otherwise standard replacement
vehicle.
(2) Requests for
miscellaneous equipment upgrades shall be made in writing by the agency's
assigned fleet contact and, shall present reasons why the upgrades are
necessary to meet the agency's needs.
(3) All requests for miscellaneous equipment
upgrades shall be subject to review and approval by the division director or
their designee. The division director or their designee shall approve any
vehicle feature or miscellaneous equipment upgrades upon determining that they
are necessary and appropriate for meeting the agency's needs.
(4) Agencies may petition the executive
director of the department, or the executive director's designee, for a review
if the division director or their designee denies a request for a miscellaneous
equipment upgrade.
(5)
Miscellaneous equipment upgrades must be paid for by the agency. A
miscellaneous equipment upgrade fee shall be assessed to the agency, which will
cover the total cost associated with providing the additional miscellaneous
equipment. The agency may pay the fee in installments or upon purchase as
agreed upon with the division.
(6)
Agencies that agree to installment payments shall indemnify and make the
division whole for any losses incurred from damage to or loss associated with
the state vehicle or its miscellaneous equipment.
