Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve amendment for Grant Agreement 2020-Al-015 between the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (AGOHS) and Cochise County Sheriff’s Office to add funds to Capital Outlay for two Intoxilyzer 9000s, in the amount of $20,271.57, effective May 5, 2020 through September 30, 2020. 
 

Background:

The Cochise County Sheriff's Office has an existing grant with AGOHS for DUI/ Impaired Driver Enforcement.  This is grant #2020-AL-015.  The Sheriff's Office is currently using Intoxilyzer 8000 units.  Arizona law enforcement agencies have begun switching to the Intoxilyzer 9000.  These units are considered to be the new standard for DUI investigations.  Purchasing the Intoxilyzer 9000's will help keep the Cochise County Sheriff's Office up to date with modern policing standards.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

If approved, the Sheriff's Office will purchase two Intoxilyzer 9000 units.   

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

If this funding is not approved, the Sheriff's Office will continue to use the Intoxilyzer 8000 units.  This will create issues, as we are not able to find new user training for these systems.  This is due to the age of the Intoxilyzer 8000 and the State of Arizona moving toward the use of the Intoxilyzer 9000.  Our current Intoxilyzer 8000's are old and showing signs of wear.  They are having to be repaired more frequently which can lead to issues while conducting a DUI investigation.  

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

Please sign 2 copies of original forms and send back to the Sheriff's Office.
