Also included in the package is $1.4 million to install or upgrade take-a-number systems at 33 centers because drivers will soon have to make two trips from the waiting area to the service counter.

Barbara freakin Streisand! That's over $42k per office. What the heck do the systems do, reach out and tap you on the shoulder??? All for "now service number 2?" Anybody suggesting such a procurement should be tarred and feathered then run out of town on a rail.

Well I don’t believe it should cost $42k but since it is a government contract it probably does. In California the DMV’s have some kind of thing (not sure if it is tied into their computers) that when they are done with one person they hit something and an auto announcer calls the next number and tells them which window to go to.
