Grand County approves $25,008 LiveScan fingerprint machine for jail
Summary
The county authorized purchase and one-year maintenance for an IDEMIA LiveScan fingerprint machine for the jail at $25,008; staff said the cost is currently unbudgeted and a supplemental may be requested later if needed.
County staff and the Sheriff's Office asked commissioners to approve purchase of an IDEMIA LiveScan fingerprint machine with a one-year warranty and maintenance contract for the jail at a total cost of $25,008. The sheriff's office said refurbished units were explored but unavailable within required timeframes, and the purchase is meant to restore local fingerprinting capacity.
County staff noted the expense is unbudgeted; the sheriff said if a supplemental appropriation is required, the department will return later in the year to request it. A commissioner moved to approve the purchase and authorize the chair to sign; the motion passed by voice vote.
