Summary
Staff presented an amendment to the county's Verizon contract to allow replacement and upgrade of equipment on the Columbia Road water tank for 5G compatibility; staff said the amendment carries no cost change.
County Public Works staff on July 22 asked the committee to approve an amendment to the Verizon agreement covering cellular equipment on the Columbia Road water tank to allow Verizon to replace and upgrade its equipment for 5G service.
"Verizon wants to replace their equipment on on the tank so they're upgrading everything to become 5 gs," Mr. Gordon said. He told the committee the proposed changes are limited to equipment replacement and that the amendment would not change contract costs. Staff recommended approval.
