The Utah County Commission accepted a donation offered to the Sheriff's Office and recorded a concern from a commissioner that any resulting purchases of computers or electronic equipment follow standard procurement procedures and involve county IT to ensure security.

During consideration of consent item number 8, a commissioner asked whether anyone from the Sheriff's Office was present to answer questions about the donation and said she had no problem accepting it. She added a caveat: "I just want to make sure that the purchase goes through the regular process because if we're purchasing any computers or electronic equipment I want to make sure it has the full level of security so that we're not inadvertently exposing ourselves to any liabilities. So I'm fine accepting the donation. I just want to make sure the purchase goes through the regular purchase process, that IT is aware of it, etcetera." Another speaker offered to follow up to ensure county processes were followed.

The commission moved to approve item 8; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

The transcript does not specify the donor, the exact items donated, or any dollar value; the record indicates the commissioner who expressed the procurement/IT concern would follow up to ensure compliance with county purchasing and IT-security policies.
