Thayer, Chief of Police Authorization to Solicit Bids, Police Department Computer Equipment Recommendation: That Council authorize the Police Department to solicit bids for computer equipment as is included in Fiscal Year '82-'83 Budget, Revenue Sharing. Background: In Fiscal Year '82-'83 Budget, Council authorized the purchase of the necessary computer equipment to fully implement the police software programs and expand word processing capabilities throughout the Police Department at minimal cost. The word processing package will also allow for word processing at other City locations at significant savings over the purchase of additional freestanding Micom units which are currently in use. Bids will be requested for two word processing/data entry computer terminals, two letter quality printers, one data entry terminal, and word processing software. Purchase and implementation of this equipment will enable the department to utilize the capabilities of our available electronic data processing systems to the extent that they were designed. This will result in a stabilization of personnel costs necessary to maintain the same service levels in the future. Authorized expenditure and estimated cost of this equipment is $29,800.
