DPS adds two new vehicles to their expanding fleet
It was only less than four months ago that the Department of Public Safety took possession of four new Chevy Tahoe sport utility vehicles from Chief Procurement Officer Laau M. Seui. Now DPS has added yet another two new vehicles to their fleet.
(The vehicles are funded with money collected from traffic violation citations issued by the Department of Public Safety and enforced by the Judiciary).
This past Friday, CPO Seui handed over the keys for two new vehicles to Acting Police Commissioner Filifa’atali Mike Fuiava during a brief presentation ceremony held at the Procurement compound in Tafuna.
Each of the two vehicles cost an estimated $21,000 and purchased from the US General Service Administration which, according to Filifaatali, resulted in big savings for his department.
Filifaatali expressed his gratitude to the Governor for continuously supporting DPS efforts in upgrading their service to the people and government of American Samoa.
In addition to the police vehicles, a third vehicle purchased for the Department of Legal Affairs was also ordered from GSA and is already on island.
