Board approves $7,026 purchase of server and iCloud backup from Delhi Telephone Company
Summary
After finding backups had lapsed, the board approved buying a new server for $6,157 and iCloud storage for $869 from Delhi Telephone Company (total $7,026) to restore town data backup capacity.
Supervisor Joseph Cetta told the board that town file backups had not run for months after the town declined a five-year contract with ISD. To restore backup capability, Cetta presented two quotes from Delhi Telephone Company: a server for $6,157.00 (including labor) and iCloud storage for $869.00 (including labor).
Councilman Kevin Armstrong moved and Councilwoman Patty Wood seconded Resolution #96 to purchase the server and iCloud storage from Delhi Telephone Company for a total of $7,026.00. The motion carried.
The minutes note the town discovered the ISD backup service had stopped when officials decided not to commit to a five-year IT contract. The board approved the one-time purchase to reestablish backup redundancy; no additional purchasing details or a multi-year contract were discussed during the meeting.
