BACKGROUND
The "Avoid the 25" grant will help to fund a comprehensive, multi-agency, impaired-driver program that
focuses on aggressive traffic law enforcement and public education. This program is designed to decrease
the number of DUI related traffic collisions and fatalities by increasing the number of DUI arrests. Additionally,
the "Avoid the 25"program is intended to reduce collisions and fatalities through greater public awareness
and education from media coverage of the program. The program has proven to be effective in three other
Bay Area counties, and has resulted in an increase in DUI arrests with a reduction in DUI related collisions.
The purchase of the DUI trailer will aid in the efforts of the Avoid the 25 campaign by allowing law
enforcement to conduct sobriety checkpoints at predetermined locations.
In accordance with Administrative Bulletin No. 508 "County Vehicle and Equipment Acquisition and
Replacement Policy with Guidelines," approval is requested for the purchase of the above-referenced vehicle.
Based on a review of the need for the new vehicle and consideration of alternative fueled vehicles, the Fleet
Manager recommends approval of this request. This request has been reviewed and approved by the County
Administrator for consideration by the Board of Supervisors.
