The City of Henagar will soon be purchasing Preliminary Breath Test devices for the Henagar Police Department. A preliminary breath test device, commonly called a PBT, is a small device that the officer can carry in his or her patrol car that allows them to get an overall reading of the suspect s blood alcohol content. The suspect blows into it, and it registers a number for officers.
At Monday night s regular council meeting, the council approved the purchase of seven PBT s in the amount of $3,799. We got a quote on seven, so we can give one to each officer, said Mayor Lee Davis.
This February will be the third annual Love your Library, month. The Henagar Public Library will accept donations and begin virtual book readings during the month of February.
âWe do it in February because of Valentineâs Day and to use that time at the beginning of the year so we can continue our programs and develop new ones throughout the year that strengthen our families in the community. That is near and dear to my heart.â said Library Director Donna Carlin.
Donations are used for purchasing books, reading programs throughout the year, skills classes and other activities that strengthen the community.
