The Saratoga County Board of Supervisors voted Sept. 3 to authorize a contract with RS Telecom Incorporated to provide repair and maintenance services for the microwave portion of the county's public safety radio system.
A staff presenter described the resolution as authorizing the chairman to execute a two-year agreement, with a one-year extension option.
