Bryan County approves five-year Motorola lease-purchase for microwave communications upgrade
Summary
The commission authorized a five-year lease-purchase agreement with Motorola Solutions requiring five annual payments of $551,891.72 for a county microwave system and communications equipment relocation; one commissioner recused from the vote.
The Bryan County Board of Commissioners voted to approve a Motorola microwave system upgrade and communications equipment relocation, and to authorize staff to execute a five-year lease-purchase agreement with Motorola Solutions requiring five annual payments of $551,891.72.
A commissioner announced a recusal prior to the motion. Commissioner (speaker 3) moved to approve the Motorola upgrade and the associated lease-purchase agreement; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The motion text specified five annual payments of $551,891.72; the agreement as described will be a multi-year financing arrangement requiring county signature.
Why it matters: the communications infrastructure upgrade is intended to support county operations; the lease-purchase structure obligates the county to multi-year payments and was discussed briefly and approved during the meeting. One commissioner recused himself from this item; no roll-call vote was recorded.
What happens next: staff were authorized to execute required paperwork to enter the lease-purchase agreement with Motorola Solutions.
