Commission approves new iPhone and service for tourism work phone
Summary
The commission approved purchase of a new iPhone (iPhone 16 referenced) and an unlimited Union Wireless plan (estimated $65/month) for the tourism department work phone; commissioners discussed warranty, hotspot capability and sharing arrangements.
The Daggett County Commission approved acquiring a new iPhone and service for the tourism department work phone assigned to Jordan.
Staff reviewed options from Union Wireless and discussed purchasing a brand‑new device versus a renewed device; commissioners favored a brand‑new phone with carrier insurance and an unlimited data plan to avoid overage charges. The contract discussion noted a monthly cost around $65.
Commissioners clarified that the device is county property intended for tourism work, but supervisory staff may use it in emergencies or when the assigned user is unavailable. The commission approved the phone purchase and service by motion and voice vote.
Staff will finalize procurement details, clarify hotspot and insurance options with Union Wireless, and ensure device setup for departmental use.
