County approves Internet backup links for three remote sites to improve continuity
Summary
Potter County authorized installation of Internet failover circuits at three remote county sites (12-month term) to provide backup connectivity for critical locations, with recurring monthly costs discussed as approximately $384 per unit.
IT staff asked the court to install backup Internet links at three remote county locations to provide failover if the primary circuits fail. David explained the links are intended for disaster recovery and business continuity and would cover Road & Bridge and JP3 locations as well as other remote sites. "This is part of the disaster recovery of business continuity that we've been working on," David said, noting funds are budgeted for the effort.
Commissioners asked whether the backup links would have sufficient capacity and whether Starlink or other alternatives would be used; staff said the links are intended only for failover and capacity is therefore limited but acceptable for backup purposes. The court approved the 12-month installation and recurring-service plan 5-0.
