PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
The Yellowstone County DUI Task Force will donate $600 for the purchase of an on-line Drivers License and Document Guide Program; $764.60 for the purchase of 80 3M Security Laminate Verifiers; and $1,815 for the "You Drink, We Drive" decals on the patrol vehicles, for a total of $3,179.60. The Drivers License and Document Guide is a software program that every officer can use in his or her vehicle via the internet on the MDT's. This program provides authenticity of a variety of state license plates and government issued ID's. The on-line program costs much less than the purchase of printed books and is constantly updated. The 3M Security Laminate Verifier provides physical and visual authentication of drivers licenses and identification cards with enhanced security features. The Verifier is a small handheld viewer that projects a focused light that allows the observer to detect any tampering to the retroreflective designs incorporated into the ID. When the patrol vehicle graphic transition took place several months ago, the DUI Task Force agreed to pay for the decal "You Drink, We Drive" which was placed on each patrol vehicle. The donor verification form from the DUI Task Force is on file in the City Clerk's Office.
