Schleicher County authorizes new server battery and a cloud backup agreement
Summary
The Commissioners' Court authorized County Treasurer Jennifer Henderson to buy a new on-premises battery backup and approved a cloud backup agreement with DATO covering recorded footage, with installation capped at $1,000 and DATO fees noted.
County Treasurer Jennifer Henderson told the court that the Sheriff's Office server battery backup needs replacement and presented two options priced at $1,913 and $3,542, and she recommended the more durable unit. Commissioner Chris Meador moved to authorize the purchase and agreement; Commissioner Steve Nelson seconded the motion, which the court approved, and Treasurer Jennifer Henderson was given authority to complete the transaction.
The court also approved entering a cloud backup agreement with DATO to hold footage from a separate server. Treasurer Jennifer Henderson explained the vendor's pricing: a $449 monthly fee, an $800 initial setup fee, and a listed $8,000 backup charge that DATO said would be waived if the county signed the agreement. Commissioner Gary Gibson moved to approve the DATO agreement and authorize up to $1,000 for installation; Commissioner Chris Meador seconded and the motion passed. The approvals are intended to restore redundancy for law-enforcement footage and to reduce the risk of future data loss.
