Council approves $9,999 ADT security upgrade for city facilities
Summary
The Carbondale City Council approved a $9,999 ADT security system purchase covering City Hall, the Water Plant and the Maintenance Building, with an estimated $460 monthly fee and a buyout of the prior provider; funding will come from the Improvement Reserve.
The Carbondale City Council approved a security contract with ADT on Aug. 19, 2024, to upgrade systems at City Hall, the Water Plant and the Maintenance Building. Stephen from ADT presented the proposal and said it would replace the city’s current service and allow consolidation of monitored sites.
Councilmember Kaitlyn Ball moved to approve the ADT system purchase for $9,999, including a monthly payment estimated at $460 and a buyout of the city’s existing provider Everon; Kevin Seals seconded the motion and it carried. The council directed that the cost be paid from the Improvement Reserve.
The approval follows a presentation of the existing monthly cost ($2,423.97) and the quoted new package price. No detailed service-level agreement was recorded in the minutes; council members did not record a roll-call tally in the public minutes beyond the motion carrying. Attorney Tom Barnes was present for legal counsel during the item.
The council did not set a public date for installation; follow-up implementation details and the final contract signature were not specified in the minutes.
