§47-159.3.
The State Motor Pool Division shall have the authority to acquire
passenger motor vehicles, except those purchased, leased or
transferred to the Department of Public Safety, by purchase, lease or
transfer, and all motor vehicles transferred to or purchased for said
Division shall become a "motor pool" from which, upon requisition and
proper showing to the Division of need and use for official state
business, there may be assigned suitable transportation, either on a
temporary or permanent basis, to any state agency or department.
Provided that all leases and purchases made shall be by competitive
bids, under the Central Purchasing Act. The State Motor Pool Division
shall study and ascertain the present and continuing needs for
passenger vehicles and shall authorize and direct transfer to the
motor pool or the sale of vehicles found not to be required by any
agency or department. Where any vehicle so transferred from any agency
or department was purchased by the agency from a dedicated fund or
trust fund, an amount equal to the current market value of the vehicle
shall be paid the said agency or department or shall be entered upon
the accounts of the "State Motor Pool Fund" as a credit in favor of
the agency or department from which such vehicle was transferred, and
any charges thereafter made to such agency or department for
transportation furnished by the State Motor Pool Division shall be
offset against such credit until the entire amount of the credit has
been utilized.
