Cleveland is planning to buy more public safety-related stuff for the Republican National Convention.
On Wednesday, the city posted documents to its website indicating it seeks to buy:
14 pickup trucks, ranging in size from 8,500 pounds to 12,800 pounds for the city’s police and fire departments
11 conversion vans, some of which would be used as prisoner-transport vehicles, some of which would have workspaces in the back with desks and plywood flooring for use by public-safety officials.
100 sets of body armor, which would be labeled with Cleveland Fire identification badges11 “utility task vehicles” (UTVs) — think high-powered golf carts — which would be used by EMS workers to transport patients
7 UTVs which would be assigned to the city’s public works department
