ONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION NO. 43 - 89, ACQUISITION OF INTOXILIZER 5000 INSTRUMENT ON A LEND /LEASE STATE OF MINNESOTA Chief Campbell explained that in the past other police departments have obtained instruments such as described through federal grants. Such programs no longer exist. The Lino Lakes Police Department has been offered the intoxilizer instrument at no cost to the department on a lend /lease program. He asked for authorization to complete the necessary forms to obtain the instrument. Chief Campbell explained that it is the current practice of the Police Department to transport a suspected DWI offender to a neighboring police department and test the suspect with their instrument. This practice takes the officer out of the City and away from potential calls. Acquiring this instrument will allow the Lino Lakes officer to remain in the City and on call. Mr. PH-;e1 moved to approve Resolution No. 43 -- 89 and acquire an Intoxilizer 500 Instrument on a Lend /Lease program from the State of Minnesota. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Mr. Schumacher asked Chief Campbell if this instrument required special treatment or space. Chief Campbell explained that he does not currently have sufficient space but is looking at several options. The particular concern is that the instrument must be housed in a room that is separated from any ther uses. Ir. Bisel asked if other departments will have the use of this nstrument. Chief Campbell said yes. Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously.
