The Board discussed purchasing a copy/printer/fax/scan machine for the police department. Curt noted he had found a copy/printer/fax/scan machine at Sam’s Club from $249.00 to $279.00. Curt noted he had done more research and the machine from Bella Vista was a good deal at the time, but if it breaks a certain part, it can cost up to $600.00 to fix and the toner is around $153.00. The one he looked at, at Sam’s Club is an Epson Express and it has a reservoir that you can put ink in and the refills are around $50.00. Ald. Wilson asked Curt about the chain of custody. Curt explained that when you take pictures of items that are evidence, you need to print in color. Curt noted they have been taking the jump drive with the photos on it to the prosecuting attorney’s office to be printed and that’s fine, but there are some things that we need a color printer for. Stuff like a domestic assault or auto theft. Bruising can’t be seen in black and white like you can see it in color. If we brought the jump drive to City Hall and printed the pictures, the machine in here has an edit option and can be subpoenaed, meaning it can be taken to a lab to verify the photos were not altered and could be gone for a couple days to several weeks. Ald. Wilson moved to approve a new copy/printer/fax/scan machine from Sam’s Club for up to $ 300.00. Ald. Kohley seconded. Ald. Johnson, Kohley and Wilson voted aye with 0 nays.
