Potter County approves replacement elections server after vendor price increase

Potter County Commissioner’s Court · June 8, 2026

Summary

County staff said the elections office needs a new server to meet recording mandates; a vendor quote rose roughly $2,000 since the agenda posting, and the court approved the updated purchase and associated budget amendment 5–0.

County elections staff told the court that the office’s current server was malfunctioning and that replacing it would restore compliance with mandated recording and retention requirements.

Bridal (county finance/clerk staff) told commissioners the originally attached budget amendment listed an earlier quote and that a new vendor quote had increased by about $2,000 in the interval between agenda posting and the meeting. Staff said the elections department planned to cover the increase from existing line items for election workers and that the court approved the purchase and corresponding budget change by voice vote, 5–0.

Staff emphasized the replacement was necessary to keep the department in compliance with recording mandates and to avoid administrative risk from a failing server.
