Drug testing policy details and budget constraints
City officials outlined a policy where arrest or conviction for drug or alcohol offenses can trigger random testing and a criminal investigation into illegal drug activity. Testing can occur from credible sources or after tampering with prior tests. Safety sensitive roles include law enforcement, security, inspectors, plant operators, bus drivers, city vehicle operators, and waste removal staff. Random testing may occur without advance notice, but funding for this year's program is lacking and the police cannot be tested without union approval. Each test costs about 36 dollars, and pre employment testing already exists.
