BACKGROUND

identify high collision locations, determine appropriate countermeasures, and direct limited resources for
safety improvements so as to more effectively reduce traffic collisions,and the fatalities, injuries and property
damage that result from traffic collisions.
OTS recognizes the benefit of such a countywide collision records database and the potential benefits to have
the ability to access such a database for statewide use.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this MOU is to outline a framework of conditions on which City and County will collaborate to
establish a countywide collision records database, and continue to maintain it so as to share collision
information.
CITY OBLIGATION

not currently have a collision records database system, or update the collision records database system if City
currently has an existing system.The installation of the countywide collision records database system shall be
at no cost to City.
City will maintain the installed countywide collision records database by installing updates provided by
County's vendor and keeping database current.
