Commissioners approve 10-year, 170 TB IT storage plan for prosecutor and public defender
Summary
Jackson County commissioners approved a 10-year IT plan proposing 170 TB of private storage, daily backups and a shared workspace for the prosecutor and public defender, with each office covering half the cost and services to be provided by N‑I‑Tech.
Jackson County commissioners on Aug. 20 approved a 10-year IT improvement plan to provide private storage, daily backups and a shared data workspace for the county prosecutor’s and public defender’s offices. Public Defender Pete Walker, N‑I‑Tech owner Paul Borden and Chief Prosecutor Jeff Chalfant presented the plan, which specifies 170 TB of storage—about eight times the current capacity—and enrollment of both offices in a shared environment to reduce future storage issues.
Commissioner Matt Reedy moved to approve the agreement with N‑I‑Tech; Commissioner Bob Gillaspy seconded and the motion carried on a 3-0 vote. The transcript states the agreement sets the Public Defender and the Prosecutor to each incur half the cost and that services will be provided through N‑I‑Tech. The board recorded this as a formal approval; no dollar figure for the contract was specified in the minutes.
