Winn Parish approves $97,351 courthouse security-camera and access-control system
Summary
The Police Jury voted to buy a courthouse camera and access-control system from vendor Bit Happens for $97,351.57, with $23,226.49 expected from an OEP grant; officials said existing cameras from 2009 are obsolete.
The Winn Parish Police Jury approved purchasing a new courthouse security‑camera and access‑control system from Bit Happens on state contract for $97,351.57. President Frank McLaren told jurors the existing cameras "have been here since 2009 and are now out of date and obsolete," and the minutes note repairs would cost too much to be practical.
Secretary/Treasurer Karen Tyler told the jury she received about six quotes and that the Bit Happens bid was the lowest and on state contract. The minutes record that part of the purchase will be funded by an OEP grant expected to cover $23,226.49 of the cost; the motion passed by recorded vote.
