Information Technologies Fiber Connectivity <br /> Project Category: County Capital Project Status: Active Project Type <br /> Functional Service Support Services Proposed Bid Feb 2018 New <br /> Area: Award Date: <br /> Department: Information Technology Starting Date: May 2018 Expansion X <br /> Project Number: 30007 Completion Date: June 2021 Renovation <br /> Replacement <br /> Project Description/Justification: Funding in FY2017-18 included <br /> $1,160,000 in fiber connectivity within the Town of Hillsborough. Funding <br /> of$1,160,000 is requested in FY 2020-21 to extend County owned fiber to <br /> facilities in the Southern part of the County. <br /> During FY 2016-17, Information Technologies undertook a fiber inventory <br /> and assessment project by hiring a fiber needs assessment consultant to <br /> estimate how much it would cost to run fiber to county facilities that rely on <br /> Time Warner network connections. These connections are billed monthly <br /> at approximately$17,000 per month. After connecting county facilities, <br /> excess fiber could be offered to other government agencies, schools and businesses as a means of improving <br /> internet service andmaintenance cost sharing. This fiber request may be offset with potential construction cost <br /> sharing agreements with other partners. <br /> FINANCIAL SUMMARY <br /> Current Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Five Year 6 <br /> Prior Years Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Year to <br /> Project Budget Funding 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21 2021-22 2022-23 2023-24 Total Year10 <br /> Expenses <br /> Professional Services <br /> Equipment - <br /> Fiber Connectivity 1,220,000 1,160,000 1,160,000 <br /> Total Project Budget 1,220,000 1,160,000 1,160,000 <br /> Funding Sources <br /> Transfer from General Fund 60,000 - <br /> Transfer from Other Projects <br /> Funding from Partners - <br /> Debt Financing 1,160,000 1,160,000 1,160,000 <br /> Total 1,220,000 1,160,000 1,160,000 <br /> Impact on Operating Budget <br /> Personnel Services <br /> Operations (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (78,530) (366,790) <br /> Recurring Capital <br /> New/Add7 Revenues <br /> Total Operating Costs (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (15,706) (78,530) (366,790) <br /> 56 <br />
