Commissioners consider IT monitoring contract; county IT cites roughly $2,000 annual savings
Summary
The Wilson County Commissioners Court considered a monitoring contract from the county IT department, with IT head Jason Kalsy saying the deal would save the county about $2,000 a year compared with the prior contract.
Wilson County commissioners discussed and moved to accept an IT monitoring contract presented by the county's IT department head, Jason Kalsy.
Kalsy told the court the contract would yield "a little over $2,000 in savings per year" compared with the prior arrangement, although he said the vendor had increased prices about 5 percent. Court members asked whether the contract is annual or biennial; the IT head confirmed the timing but the transcript does not fully record the final clarification.
A commissioner moved to accept the monitoring contract in the amount of $600 to $800; a second was recorded in the meeting excerpt. The transcript does not include a roll-call tally or named votes.
