Mister True presented options to purchase two additional nodes for the county’s Spillman server to complete a three‑node system.

Financing options included a Lenovo‑linked vendor rate near 7% and a local Citizens State Bank rate at 6.5%; the board voted to proceed with the purchase and financing (motion carried 3–0), with estimated payments about $2,558 per month at the 6.5% option.
