Summary
The committee reviewed the 2026 IT budget—approximately $199,500 with over $90,000 in carryover largely tied to the fire station fiber and camera work—and discussed encumbered expenses and plans to evaluate EMC's three‑year engagement before its end‑of‑2026 expiration.
Staff presented the 2026 IT budget as approximately $199,500 with more than $90,000 in carryover from 2025, primarily related to the fire station fiber project and security camera purchases. Staff listed encumbered but unpaid expenses including fiber installation, Wi‑Fi upgrades, a mechanics laptop, cabling, pool emergency phones and mini‑PCs awaiting deployment.
The committee discussed that the three‑year EMC engagement expires at the end of 2026 and that staff will evaluate renewal or seek proposals. Staff also highlighted cyber‑insurance increases, invoice‑capture controls to prevent fraud and ongoing phishing training as part of the city’s cybersecurity posture.
