Commissioners approve audiovisual and streaming upgrades for the courthouse
Summary
Court approved purchase of AV hardware and subscription for streaming/counting requirements tied to population thresholds; the county clerk's records funds will cover initial costs and IT will pay annual fees.
Staff recommended purchasing audiovisual (AV) hardware and software to equip the commissioner's court in the old courthouse and to meet streaming requirements tied to the county's population. Procurement staff said ABL would supply equipment on a DIR cooperative contract and Granicus would provide streaming and subscription services under a TIPS contract.
Staff noted the county clerk's records/archive fund will cover the initial purchase (~$200,000 reported by staff) and IT will assume ongoing annual fees starting next year. The court approved the purchase and subscription by voice vote.
Next steps: IT and the county clerk will complete procurement and deployment of equipment and implement streaming per statutory requirements.
