PEER Report #192

AN OVERVIEW OF STATE-OWNED VEHICLES, December 10, 1987, 23 pages

This report is a statewide review of administrative control and oversight of state-owned passenger vehicles. PEER inspected 180 sample vehicles and determined that forty, or 22%, are not economically justified. With regard to state-level controls, PEER concluded that the state’s procurement and disposal procedures for passenger vehicles are adequate. However, the State Auditor has not compiled a unified master property inventory and has not consistently enforced state vehicle marking requirements. PEER noted agency control practices/procedures which were particularly effective.
