Ru f, Sheriff-Coroner On FROM: p r� County y•�W � DATE: May 13, 1994 ° "`�~ CV SUBJECT: Acceptance of a donated dental x-ray machine SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION Recommendation: Acknowledge receipt of a General Electric dental x-ray machine donated by Don Laston, D.D.S. The x-ray machine is a General Electric model 110E8A-1 serial no. 726973. Background: A part of the coroner's responsibility is to identify deceased individuals coming under the jurisdiction of the coroner's office. At times, the only way this can be accomplished is through dental examination and comparison of teeth to dental x-rays. Presently we use the services of Duane E. Spencer, D.D.S., a forensic odontologist. Dr. Spencer's partner, Dr. Laston, has offered to donate a dental x-ray machine to this office which would facilitate this identification process at our place of business. This x-ray unit has a value of $1,500.00. The only expense to this department would be maintenance of the x-ray machine when/if"necessary. The x-ray machine would be subject to inspection by the State Department of Health Services on a yearly basis, as is the portable Toshiba x-ray unit already in use by this department. We believe that this x-ray. machine is a valuable contribution to- this department, and, therefore, recommend that the Board of Supervisors acknowledge the receipt of this x-ray machine. copy to: .County Administrator County Auditor Controller CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: _-YES SIGNATURE: RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD CO MITTEE APPROVE OTHER SIGNATURE(S): .erg ACTION OF BOARD ON o APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED OTHER VOTE OF SUPERVISORS I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A TRUE UNANIMOUS(ABSENT ) AND CORRECT COPY OF AN ACTION TAKEN AYES: —NOES: AND ENTERED ON THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD ABSENT: _ABSTAIN: OF SUPERVISORS ON THE DATE SHOWN. cc: CAO--Justice System Programs ATTESTED Y 3 11.914 Sheriff-Coroner PHIL BATCHELOR,CLERK OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR � M382 (10/88) BYDEPUTY
