IT Director Richard Warfield described a failing courtroom annotation system used in superior courtrooms; replacement was budgeted and approved. St. Joseph County 911 staff sought and received approval for a Verdive UPS annual maintenance agreement for primary and backup centers to ensure UPS systems can hold loads while generators start.

The board approved these items by recorded voice votes of Commissioners Morton, Hayen and Baxter.
