| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The 2016-17 Authorized Equipment List was approved by the Board on September 27, 2016, as part of the 2016-17 Adopted Budget. Since that time, the need for a new security camera system has emerged, as described below:
General Services Department
The Information Technology Division currently has an aging and inadequate security camera system in need of replacement. Funding for this purchase will be funded by savings in other professional and specialized services.
Assessor, Clerk-Recorder, Elections
The Recorder's Division security camera system is no longer operational. This new system will replace the non-functional one. Also, the Assessor and Elections Divisions will receive new cameras where they currently have none. Funding for this purchase will be funded by the Recorder Upgrade Fund.
This will be an enterprise system that is scalable so that any department can then add to it as a replacement for their aging systems or for completely new installations, saving money and streamlining implementation time. Further, it reduces the overhead and difficulty managing disparate, unconnected systems county wide. |
