transmission of missing and/or wanted persons' flyers to
members of our department, other law enforcement agencies,
news media, and other necessary agencies. This special program
provides high quality, full color images to other TRAK members.
In addition, it also provides clear, legible black and white images
using a fax machine. The system also receives flyers from other
participating agencies. The computers, printers, and scanners
are provided at no cost. The expense in implementing this program
is incurred with the installation of the analog phone lines and
the related monthly fees, phone support, software upgrade fee and
a small per recipient cost for those flyers transmitted outside our
agency. If the program proved useful, the annual cost would be
approximately $1,650 and must be requested in the Department's
annual budget process.
