Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve contract 2016-AL-061 between Cochise County and the Governor's Office of Highway Safety for $7,108 to purchase an Intoxilyzer 8000 effective October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016.
Background:
Intoxilyzer 8000 is the recognized device for determining the breath alcohol content of drivers arrested for impaired driving. In order to have these machines available throughout the county, we had to borrow one from Fort Huachuca. The purchase of this machine allows law enforcement officers from all county agencies access to a machine in the area they work. This contract has been approved as to form by the County Attorney's Office.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Purchase a new Intoxilyzer 800 and put it into service within the county.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
There will continue to be a shortage of available machines for processing individuals arrested for impaired driving.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
Please return both signed originals so they can be sent to the Governor's Office of Highway Safety for final approval.
