COUNTY of ORANGE <br /> Department of Purchasing and Central Services <br /> Pamela K.Jones.Director <br /> PEMO <br /> 10: Bill Laws, Assistant County Manager <br /> PROM: Pam Jones, Purchasing & Central Services Director yai <br /> DATE: April 15, 1987 <br /> SUBJECT: Increased operating costs associated with proposed <br /> telephone switch move <br /> As we discussed some time ago Bill, the $12,000 cost quoted to moved the Rolm <br /> switch covers only a portion of the situation. A more far reaching. <br /> ramification is the increased expense for operating the telephone system. <br /> Larry Bell, an engineer at Centel and the man responsible for the $12,000 <br /> quote, advises me that all telephone extensions located off-site of the switch <br /> must pay a additional mileage cost of a minimum of $2.43 per month, per <br /> extension. I think you can understand the impact when you consider there are <br /> approximately 200 extensions in Human Services complex that would be charged <br /> $2.43 more each for their service. That is an increase of around $5800 - $6000 <br /> per year -- forever. By leaving the switch where it is, in the most <br /> concentrated user area, we can avoid those expenses. <br /> If you have questions or require further information along these lines, please <br /> do not hesitate to call. <br /> Human Services Building • 300 West Tryon Street • Hillsborough,, North Carolina 27278 <br /> Telephones: 919 732-8181 • 919 967-9251 • 919 688-7331 • 919 227-2031 <br />
