Leasing of vehicles was a budgetary item for any department out there and many departments have done that in their history depending on funding. CT was a special case too as the GELCO cars were not tagged as GELCO if put into the CSP service specifically and did not get titled until after the cars were returned back to GELCO. The cars had to go to a fleet organization if it was a tagged specifically for that government fleet regardless of who the "financing" actually went through.
The suggestion of posting the question on CCdC would be a good idea Mike as there is more historical knowledge there at times for this type of function as there are many PD admin people that frequent that site too.
