Sheriff Murray's office wins approvals for equipment, software and program agreements
Summary
St. Clair County commissioners approved multiple procurement actions requested by Sheriff Murray — letting bids for a 3D laser scanner, a $4,250 annual software license (pending attorney review), a $36,927.24 yearly subscription via Omnia Cooperative, and participation with JBS for a 'Stepping Up' program — all approved by voice vote with attorney review where noted.
The St. Clair County Commission on Feb. 10 approved several requests from Sheriff Murray’s office to advance equipment purchases, software subscriptions and program participation.
The commission authorized letting bids for a 3D laser scanner to support law-enforcement investigations and evidence documentation. Commissioners also approved a software license in the amount of $4,250 per year for SherifF Murray’s office, pending county attorney review, and a 'carous' subscription priced at $36,927.24 annually through the Omnia Cooperative; staff indicated the county attorney had reviewed the subscription contract.
Sheriff Murray also requested approval to participate with JBS in a 'Stepping Up' program; staff said they were still working through details but sought the commission’s approval pending attorney review. Each item was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The approvals advance procurement and program participation but several items were explicitly noted as pending final county attorney review or as requiring budget amendments for future appropriation.
