Summary

County Clerk Cindy Doolittle told the council a vendor quote to replace election equipment is 'just under $287,000' and that while the county can get by for the next year, new machines would be preferable before the 2028 presidential election.

County Clerk Cindy Doolittle informed the council she has a vendor quote to replace election equipment and will schedule a future discussion. She said the quote is essentially unchanged from last year and is "just under $287,000." Doolittle said the ideal timing would be to have the new equipment in place for the 2028 presidential election, though the county could manage for the next election cycle.

Doolittle asked the council to consider the timing and funding for replacement machines because parts are no longer being manufactured. She plans to bring additional staff (Jessica and Michael) to the next meeting to answer technical or procurement questions and to present options for financing the purchase.
