Summary

City accepted a bid for immutable backup storage under a cybersecurity grant and approved a five-year printer contract renewal for Public Safety Center printers.

IT Director Meyer reported that Dickinson received a cybersecurity grant and solicited bids for immutable backup storage. Six bids were returned; the low bid was rejected for failing to meet three specifications and staff recommended awarding to TrueNAS for their hybrid unit at roughly $113,800. Meyer said the federal grant will cover about $79,000 and the city share is approximately $34,000; the commission approved the award.
