Authorization
REQUEST:
The Information Services Department requests that the Commission
authorize the City Manager to enter into an inter local agreement with
Seminole County to provide the City with fiber optic connectivity.
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this item is to request that the Commission authorize the City
Manager to enter into an interlocal agreement with Seminole County to furnish
the City with Fiber connectivity for data and, later, phone system connectivity
between City Hall and Police/Fire/Public Works network.
CONSIDERATIONS:
An interlocal agreement between Seminole County and The City of Winter
Springs must be signed by the City Manager. This agreement will allow the City
to connect to Seminole County I s existing fiber optic network and will give the
City much needed connectivity at a very low cost. The City must pay a yearly
maintenance fee of $2964 or less, depending upon the number of fibers the City
will actually use. The County will then be solely responsible for any repairs or
problems with the fiber. If approved, this amount will be added to Information
Services FY 99-2000 budget.
FUNDING:
Funding for this first year starting in FY 98-99 will come from General Fund
Reserves.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Commission authorize the City Manager to enter into
the Interlocal agreement with Seminole County.
