Board backs $100/year cloud storage to publish meeting audio and records
Summary
Select Board agreed to purchase modest cloud storage (approx. $100/year) so large audio and record files can be hosted and linked from the town website, improving public access to minutes and recordings.
Stamford Select Board members agreed to purchase cloud storage to host large meeting audio and record files that currently exceed the town website's capacity. The proposal — roughly $100 per year for adequate storage — would allow the webmaster to post links from the town site to the archived files, ensuring recordings remain accessible if local hardware fails.
Board members noted that state rules require recording retention for meetings and that posting audio online would assist transparency. There was consensus to proceed with purchasing the cloud storage and to coordinate with the town webmaster to implement links on committee pages.
