County approves courthouse camera upgrade paid from Court Security Fund
Summary
The board approved a BT Video Systems quote to add cameras inside and outside the courthouse and improve blind-spot coverage; Sheriff Clint Perzee said the judges requested the upgrade and the purchase will be funded from the Court Security Fund.
The Iroquois County Board approved a quote from BT Video Systems to add and upgrade courthouse and exterior cameras to address blind spots. Sheriff Clint Perzee briefed the board that the purchase would be paid from the Court Security Fund (an automation-style fund) and that judges had requested improved coverage.
Perzee said the update would enhance outside security and help address blind spots inside the courthouse. The board approved the purchase by roll-call vote; Chairman Paul Ducat recorded an abstention on the motion. The purchase will be implemented through the Judicial & Public Safety committee with funding and procurement handled according to the county’s procedures.
No contract amount is listed in the minutes beyond the vendor quote being presented and approved; the Court Security Fund balance and administrative details will be confirmed by the county finance office.
