Board hears updated timelines for vote‑center printers; Hart InterCivic cited as able to ship quickly
Summary
Board members discussed lead times for specialized vote‑center printers. A vendor previously suggested 6–8 months; a Hart InterCivic representative told a board member units could ship from a warehouse within weeks, with mid‑March as a latest date for receiving units and completing setup.
Board members discussed procurement timelines for vote‑center equipment during the Nov. 6 meeting.
One member recalled prior vendor guidance that specialized printers needed 6–8 months lead time before a primary. After the prior meeting, staff reached out to Hart InterCivic and spoke with representative Lawrence Leach, who told a board member the vendor had units in a warehouse and could ship within a day or two and that Monroe County could receive equipment in two to three weeks. Leach recommended having units by mid‑March to allow for setup and training.
Members said they were sharing the updated timeline publicly because it could affect attitudes and planning for vote centers. No procurement decision was made at the meeting; members recounted separate vendor guidance and advised staff to consider the different vendor timelines when planning.
