WHEREAS, the Concealed Weapons Licensing Board currently approves approximately 200 applications per month; and

WHEREAS, the permit preparation process currently takes approximately five minutes per permit; and

WHEREAS, the Clerk plans to reorganize his office and eliminate a Deputy Clerk II position, which creates the need to reduce the time spent on repetitive tasks; and

WHEREAS, the IDentiphoto System will interface with the CCW Database and Passport Photo system currently in use; and

WHEREAS, IDentiphoto is a sole source provider approved by the Michigan State Police and on the General Services Administration Contract.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that Ingham County Board of Commissioners approves the purchase of the IDentiphoto 550CCW Card System from Identiphoto, at a cost not to exceed $9,000.00, which includes a Dual-Side Card Printer, Card Design, Photo Scanner, Signature Pad, supplies, training and a Service Agreement.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the funds will be taken from the Contingency Fund and the savings realized by the reduction of staff and that the Controller/Administrator is authorized to make the necessary budget adjustments consistent with this resolution.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Ingham County Board Chairperson and County Clerk are authorized to sign any contract documents consistent with this resolution after approval as to form by the County Attorney.
