By its enactment of the Omnibus Transportation
Employee Testing Act, the federal government requires alcohol and
drug testing of all personnel who drive commercial motor vehicles
requiring a commercial driver's license (CDL). In order to conform
to these regulations and to ensure that all employees of the Town
of Farmington who are so classified are properly tested, the Town
Board is hereby enacting the Town's policy and procedures with regard
to alcohol and drug testing.
The Town Board hereby creates the "Town of Farmington
Alcohol and Drug Testing Policy," the text of which is attached hereto
as Exhibit A and incorporated herein. The Town Board further directs
the Supervisor and/or other designated Town official to take any and
all necessary measures in implementing the policy.
The Town Board understands that the policy may,
from time to time, be changed as required by federal or state law,
rule or regulation. If such changes are necessary, the changes shall
be authorized by resolution of the Town Board.
The policy referenced herein shall remain on
file with the Town Clerk at all times and be available for public
inspection.
