Moved by Greenwood, seconded by Cole that the request of the Superintendent of Central Garage for authorization to seek bids for an equipment trailer for Leisure Services Department be approved. Ayes: Three. Motion carried. The request of the Police Chief for authorization to seek bids for digital in-car camera systems was reviewed. Recent technology advancements now make in-car camera systems available in a digital format. The digital systems are more efficient, require fewer repairs and produce better quality recordings. The Police Department recently switched over to digital equipment in the interview/interrogation rooms and the City Hall video security system. The Police Department currently uses VHS in-car camera systems for the department's patrol cars. The Police Department believes now is the time to begin the process to switch from a VHS format to a digital format in their in-car camera systems. This transformation will take place over the next few years as money becomes available. The expenditure for this proposal will be taken from the Capital Equipment Program monies and other line item funding sources as necessary. Moved by Greenwood, seconded by Cole that said request be approved. Ayes: Three. Motion carried.

Ayes: Three. Motion carried. Moved by Cole, seconded by Greenwood that the request of the Community Development Coordinator for pre-authorization to expend $4,200.00 for training for lead paint workers be approved. Ayes: Three. Motion carried. Moved by Cole, seconded by Greenwood that the request of the Fire Chief for pre-authorization to expend $7,800.00 for costs for measles, mumps and rubella shots be approved. Fire Chief DeBerg explained that the shots will be administered through Allen Occupational Health. The Iowa Department of Health recommends first responders receive these shots. The measles, mumps and rubella shots will cost a maximum of$65.00 per employee. Chief DeBerg stated if the mump cases turn into an epidemic status then the federal government would pay for the shots. Mayor Hurley noted that Fire Department staff have direct contact with sick people, but in approving this request we are pushing over a boundary where the city has not gone before. Mayor Hurley stated that Chief DeBerg has made the decision to pay for these shots out of the Fire Department's budget. Mayor Hurley noted that a lot of other city offices deal with the public and could come into contact with someone with the mumps. Councilperson Gunderson commented that those other offices could be closed down, but the Fire Department would face overtime costs and the ramification of not having firefighters on the streets. Councilperson Gunderson asked if Homeland Security funds could be used for the cost of the shots. Chief DeBerg responded that if it reaches epidemic status, then Homeland Security would contact the Governor's office and then federal funds would become available. Following comments a vote was taken on the above motion with the following result. Ayes: three. Motion carried.
