Commissioners authorize $158,916 fiber upgrade at Santa Fe Building
Summary
The court authorized a contract with Master e Networks to replace 1 Gbps fiber in the Santa Fe Building with new fiber supporting up to 100 Gbps at a cost of $158,916, a lower bid than originally estimated.
County IT staff reported that bids for a Santa Fe Building fiber upgrade came in significantly under earlier estimates and recommended awarding the work to Master e Networks at a cost of $158,916.
David (county IT staff) told the court the project — previously estimated at roughly $325,000 — came in at $158,916 and that funds are budgeted in capital equipment. After questions from commissioners, the court moved, seconded and approved authorization for the upgrade on a 5–0 vote.
Staff said the new fiber will support up to 100 Gbps to future-proof county connectivity; the Santa Fe Building is a central network point for county operations. The court recorded approval and directed staff to proceed with procurement and timetable coordination with county operations.
