Midway awards network contract to CVE; leased equipment and city‑owned cabling noted
Summary
The council voted to award the network cabling and Wi‑Fi buildout contract to CVE; the lower‑cost proposal included leased equipment while cabling will be city‑owned and the system will support Swiss Days Wi‑Fi needs.
Midway City Recorder Brad Wilson presented two proposals for a citywide network cabling and Wi‑Fi refresh, summarizing included buildings, cost comparisons, and weighted scoring. The lowest‑cost proposer (CVE) included leased equipment and an accessible management dashboard; staff noted cabling would be city‑owned and some overhead cabling would be required.
Council Member JC Simonsen observed that leasing equipment could keep the system current while the cabling remains city property. Mayor Craig Simons said he was comfortable with the lower‑cost recommendation and noted the project would provide Wi‑Fi access for Swiss Days. Council Member Andy Garland moved to award the contract to CVE; Council Member Kevin Payne seconded and the council voted unanimously in favor.
The contract award authorizes the city to proceed with vendor coordination and implementation with the city’s managed service provider.
