PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
The City of Billings has contracted with Yellowstone County for the past several years to provide the Sheriff's Department with New World Public Safety access, disk storage, computer processing, program maintenance and operations to support its existing data processing requirements. Under an annual agreement, Information Technology bills the Sheriff's Office for the actual resource use in the prior calendar year. Council is being asked to approve the FY 2011-2012 agreement.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
The City Council may:
- Approve the annual agreement with Yellowstone County Sheriff's Department; or
- Not approve the annual agreement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The annual charge for July 1, 2011, through June 30, 2012, is $94,520. The prior year's charges were $91,947. The increase is a result of actual usage of the Public Safety System.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the agreement to provide data processing services for the Yellowstone County Sheriff's Department in the amount of $94,520.
