This amendment has been approved as to form by the County Attorney's Office.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Continue to conduct enforcement activities related to distracted / aggressive driving while utilizing the Radar units.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Funding for this type of traffic enforcement equipment would not be available due to lack of general funds to purchase new speed enforcement equipment to replace older equipment.
