A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THE
CHIEF OF POLICE TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT FOR
ALCOHOL AND/OR DRUG ANALYSIS BETWEEN THE
CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE AND THE CITY OF LODI
WHEREAS, in early 2019, the Bureau of Forensic Services (BFS) began updating its
standard contract for DUI analysis services in order to adapt to changes in the Vehicle Code as
well as to the increase in drug -only DUI (DUID) cases; and
WHEREAS, the amended language allows California Department of Justice laboratories
to commence drug analysis immediately when no alcohol content is suspected. This change
will streamline the analytical process, minimize turn -around times, and decrease backlogs; and
WHEREAS, the agreement does not have a set term or financial limit language that
necessitates review and approval by the City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby
authorize the Chief of Police to execute an agreement for alcohol and/or drug analysis between
the California Department of Justice and the City of Lodi; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, pursuant to Section 6.3q of the City Council Protocol
Manual (adopted 11/6/19, Resolution No. 2019-223), the City Attorney is hereby authorized to
make minor revisions to the above -referenced document(s) that do not alter the compensation
or term, and to make clerical corrections as necessary.
