Dear t4i�. Beebe:
A requisition `or an automated fingerprint scanner has been
submitted to City Purchasing and a copy of the Request for •
Quotatian (P,FQ), along �rith pertinent background data, has
been sent to t1ayor Latimer. The ground work for the finger-
print scanner began about t��o years ago Hrhen favorable
� reaction to the system was r�ceived from the La��� Enforcement
t�ssistance Administration through the Governor's Commission
an Crime Prevention and Control. The configuration is being
planned for future statewide application although the init.ial
instailation ca1Ts for a central co�nputer and tt��o remote
terminal locations.
The State Bureau of Criminai Apprehension and the t�tinneapolis
Police Department have supported the acquisition of the scanner
system and will be part of the initial operational phase.
Upon receipt of the vendor's cost proposals, a grant will be
written and resolutions o` the sponsorship a•1i11 be requested
from the participating jurisdictions. The matching funds for
the fingerprint scanner are expected to be divided betv�een
the participating agencies based on the responses to the
RFQ from the vendors.
The detivery date for the scanner system is projected to be
ten months fram the date of award.
Further information about the system can be obtained from Sgt.
Joe Corcoran at 2Q1-1111, 'Ext. 3Qi�,
Sincerely,
