Re: Resolution Request to pay in invoice for repairs to the Mobile Health Unit
The Department is requesting to be placed on the September 8 Legislative Agenda to use this
year's funds to pay an invoice from 2024 for repairs to the Mobile Health Unit (MHU).
Dutchess County ordered and received delivery of the Mobile Health Unit (MHU) in
December of 2022. In October of 2023 the MHU was involved in a training accident requiring
the complete replacement of the rear back cap for a cost of $20,186.18. There was over a 3-
month lag in time to schedule repair, and the MHU did not go back to the dealer until March
of 2024. The MHU was returned about a month later.
In addition, there was $3,500 in miscellaneous repairs. Due to insurance timelines this
invoice was not paid in 2024.
Please find attached a Resolution Request Form and Fiscal Impact Statement, Invoice of
repairs, and Photographs of the accident.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at extension 3552 if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you.
