Keith Brooks, Data Processing Manager <br /> DATE: August 29, 1983 <br /> I <br /> Orange County has recently, or is in the process of, <br /> entering into agreements with the Towns of Carrboro and <br /> Hillsboroughjand the Orange County School Board to provide <br /> certain datalprocessing services. In each case, the revenue <br /> from those agreements will cover the cost of all equipment <br /> or software and most of the operating expenses reguired to <br /> provide those services. All equipment purchased will remain <br /> the property of the County and can be used by County <br /> departments if any of the agreements are not renewed. The <br /> County will be purchasing one application package (Utility <br /> Billing) and developing one (Student Records) but <br /> Hillsboroughjand the School Board will be paying us for <br /> their cost. IAll other software to be used will be that <br /> already in use by the County. <br /> For the current year (83-84) , the County will net a <br /> small loss due to start-up costs and not being able to get <br /> everyone up on July first. Each of the next two years should <br /> net the County close to $20,000 if none of the units add any <br /> additional lines or equipment and the cost of the telephone <br /> lines and equipment maintenance remain the same. Carrboro <br /> is already seeing the need for some additional terminals as <br /> the ones we have installed are being used more than <br /> expected. <br /> The attached chart covers the current year plus two <br /> more. The agreement with Carrboro is for four years while <br /> those for Hillsborough and the School Board are for three. <br />
