Gilford board approves cloud hosting for Vision CAMA and several IT hardware purchases
Summary
Board voted 2-1 to host Vision CAMA data in the cloud at $7,829/year, delayed server replacement while evaluating cloud transition, and approved Meraki wireless access points and workstation replacements.
The Board reached a non‑unanimous consensus to delay server replacements while exploring a transition to cloud‑based storage. Selectman Benavides moved to approve cloud hosting of Vision CAMA data at a cost of $7,829 per year, with funds from the technology capital reserve fund; Selectman Grenier seconded and the motion passed 2-1. The Board also accepted a quote of $6,193.13 from Mainstay for seven Meraki wireless access points and accepted a Mainstay low bid of $15,560.17 for 13 desktops and one laptop to come from account 4151‑454; both hardware motions passed unanimously.
The Board recorded the motion outcomes and directed staff to proceed with contracted services; the cloud hosting motion included a dissenting vote, indicating some concern about cloud transition tradeoffs that will be monitored by the administration.
