Item A: Ed Toth said that he did not know if the caucus rooms are wired, but
the tables are wired. Tom Hamilton said he was asked if we could use the refreshed
pc’s for this.
Item B: Karen Del Vecchio reviewed a state contract for equipment disposal (spacefitters). They charge a few based on the volume. If the equipment can be resold, we will get 70% back. Discs will be wiped or shreaded. They also handle deployment. There was a general discussion on if this method of disposal fell under the current charter rules, how much it would cost and where to store the equipment. Hal Alvord said that when DPW takes over the old police building we could store the equipment in the building.
Item C: Printer is very old and needs to be refreshed and will be put on the consent calendar next week.
