Hague board approves $2,000-a-year AV contract despite member objections
Summary
The Town Board approved a contract with Smart Home ADK for Zoom and AV management at $166.67/month ($2,000/year) after debate over prior personnel handling and possible legal implications; vote carried despite at least one objection.
The Town Board voted to approve a contract with Smart Home ADK to provide audio-visual and Zoom management services for town meetings at a cost of $166.67 per month (about $2,000 per year). The contract was described to the board as a way to professionalize remote meeting management and improve participant audio quality.
Council member Smith (S9) spoke against the contract, saying he could not support proceeding given recent personnel matters, stating: "I don't think we should move forward with this. I'm not for it." The board conducted a roll-call vote and carried the motion despite the objection. The contract will be invoiced monthly to the town; the board did not record a full roll-call listing of individual votes by name in the transcript beyond noting the motion carried.
