Committee clears small elections grants and approves annual support payment for voting equipment
Summary
The committee approved a $31,686 payment for annual license and support tied to the county's voting machine scanners and accepted contract extensions to clear three small, older grants totaling roughly $77,751 (ballot-by-mail $75,853; absentee postage $131.95; cybersecurity $1,767).
The IGA committee approved payment to the vendor cited in the transcript for annual license and support on the county’s voting machine scanners in year four of the contract; the amount presented at the meeting was $31,686 and funding was available in the contracts line item.
Committee members discussed the payment briefly, moved and seconded the request, and took a roll‑call vote that approved the expenditure.
The committee also reviewed three older grants with small remaining balances and approved accepting contract extensions to clear them immediately. The grants identified were a 2024 ballot‑by‑mail grant ($75,853), an absentee postage grant ($131.95) and a cybersecurity grant ($1,767); staff said these are older grants with modest remaining funds and no new programmatic commitments.
"This is our annual license and support. It's 31,686. It is funded. It's in our contracts line item," the chair said when presenting the vendor payment request. The motion to authorize payment and the motion to accept the grant contract extensions were both approved on roll‑call votes.
