Commissioners approve sheriff’s vehicle replacement and JAG-funded e-citation purchase
Summary
The court approved replacement of a totaled patrol pickup (balance ~$21,977 after insurance) and a JAG-grant-funded Motorola e-citation system and mobile printers (total $55,133.39); motions passed unanimously.
The sheriff's office told the court it identified a replacement Chevrolet pickup for $54,675 after an insurance payout and requested approval to use county funds to cover the balance; staff reported the insurance payout of $32,697 and a resulting county balance of approximately $21,977. The court approved the vehicle purchase after discussion of the accident and vehicle condition.
Sheriff's staff also presented a proposal to use 2024 JAG grant funds to buy a Motorola e-citation software package ($31,890.39) and 23 Brother mobile printers ($23,243), reporting that the JAG grant would cover most of the cost with a small $995 county contribution. The sheriff said the system is aimed at electronic ticket writing and replacing a problematic third-party vendor. "What we're simply looking to do here is to accomplish electronic ticket writing capability for our agency," said the sheriff’s representative. The court approved the equipment purchases 5–0.
