Information

Agenda Item Text:

Discussion and possible direction regarding the Information Technologies' Department Network/Microwave systems.

Background:

1.       Discuss aging network/microwave infrastructure and underscore challenges this presents the County

2.       Propose plan to address these challenges and discuss why it is imperative

a.       Network refresh - $540,000:  This is a fully engineered solution with aggressive discounts.  I’m proposing we finance this on a 5 year term which will roughly translate to $10,000 / month

b.      Microwave refresh - $1,500,000:  I am currently working on engineering specific proposals.  I would also propose the County finance this on a 10 year term which would roughly translate to a cost of $12,500 / month

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Present a formal proposal during a Board meeting.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

Network/Microwave systems will remain the same negatively impacting county services.
