Summary

The commission reviewed a request to buy two iPads at $499.99 each (plus monthly service charges), discussed Project Lifesaver equipment, and reviewed a two-year SecureTech Systems maintenance contract quoted at $94,881 for panic/secure systems; commissioners flagged IT compatibility and recurring service costs.

County staff presented a package of smaller technology and security procurements including iPads, Project Lifesaver equipment, and a two-year maintenance contract for the county panic/security system.

The proposed iPads were quoted at $499.99 each with recurring Verizon service of roughly $20 per device per month; staff said additional iPads would be purchased later to support a transition. Commissioners emphasized IT compatibility and asked that purchases be coordinated with the county’s IT staff. The clerk also reviewed a SecureTech Systems Inc. maintenance renewal quoted at $94,881 for two years to service recently installed panic and security equipment; commissioners acknowledged the recurring cost and asked for justification tied to the courthouse and annex security needs.

Commissioners asked staff to return with implementation details, ongoing service obligations, and funding lines before taking formal action.
