Council approves SCADA upgrade for water system
Summary
The Eureka City Council voted unanimously to accept a proposal to upgrade the town's SCADA hardware and software, authorizing the integrator to install and train staff; councilors discussed hourly, mileage and training arrangements.
A council member moved and another seconded a motion to accept both the software and hardware proposals to upgrade the city's SCADA system; the motion passed unanimously on a roll‑call vote.
Council members discussed the scope and costs of the integrator's work during the meeting. As one council member put it during discussion, "this one's 14 50 in integration?" Councilors also noted the integrator quoted an hourly rate, mileage and a materials surcharge; the proposal includes a follow‑up visit to train new city workers on SCADA functions.
Mayor Robert Jenkins confirmed the motion passed after the roll‑call: all present members voted "Aye." The council asked staff to proceed with procurement and scheduling for the upgrade and training, and to return with any additional quotes or scheduling constraints if the integrator needs multiple trips.
