d. Parking Lot Resurface Project Update
The milling machine was delivered today. The plan on starting that tomorrow, and resurfacing on Wednesday. They should be done in two days.
e. IT / Phone System Contract Renewal / Data Backup Service Contract Renewal
The Heart contract is expiring soon. They have added to this contract additional back-up for the network. The cost of this year contract is $113,150. There is a separate contract for the jails Central Control which is for $12,462.02. The Health Department is cutting a check the County for IT services from June through December for $10,500. Motion made by Parsons to approve the Heart contract, seconded by Barker. It was discussed that while the price has gone up, it is still cheaper than hiring a full time person and a back-up person. There were 697 tickets for IT services this year. But because it was the first year, trying to get things up to date, and the Covid crisis, it is probably not a good year to use as an example. Motion passed.
f. Access Control Network & Data System Contract
This was pulled from the agenda.
g. Jail Monitoring CCTV/Intercom System Equipment Replacement and Maintenance Contract
There are several monitors in central control that monitor the jail. Two of those monitors have gone out. These are 55 inch monitors and are on 24/7. Heart will do the work and work with the vendors to get us to where we need to be. It was asked if we didn't do this last year. Last year we added cameras and updated the software, but didn't do anything with the monitors. When the monitors were installed, we used the old brackets and the monitors were up high due to their size and where the brackets already were placed. With this set up, the control person cannot see all the monitors at one time. We will install smaller monitors and lower them so they can be viewed continuously. Motion to approve the jail monitoring CCTV intercom system equipment replace and maintenance contract made by Parsons, seconded by Barker. Motion passed.
h. StarCoin21 Trucked Radio System Update
Within 30 days the system should be up and running. Motorola has to install fiber and then we should be set to go. MTCO has been working on their part.
