Recommended Action

Strategic Plan Goal(s)

Operational Excellence

Reason for Recommended Action/Background

Yolo County Innovation & Technology Services is dedicated to the continuous expansion and enhancement of the county's data network. This proposal aims to extend the existing infrastructure to create a more robust and redundant data network within the City of Davis. Astound Broadband already possesses an extensive communications infrastructure in Davis. Engaging another provider would necessitate the construction of a nearly identical infrastructure, resulting in significantly higher costs compared to this proposal.
