24 <br /> 1 Vice-Chair McKee asked if that would be part of the VIPER system and might bring back <br /> 2 signal issues as a problem. <br /> 3 Kirby Saunders said it would be part of the VIPER and the towers will improve coverage <br /> 4 but won't provide 100% reception throughout the county. He said they will greatly improve it. <br /> 5 Vice-Chair McKee said he would like to know at what level of control they will have with <br /> 6 VIPER system access. <br /> 7 Kirby Saunders said VIPER serves only public safety agencies so they could not bring <br /> 8 the schools onto the network. He said they do lose some ability to determine who is on the <br /> 9 system, but the alternative is to build our own system and that is significantly more expensive. <br /> 10 Vice-Chair McKee said his priority is covering schools and that he is not opposed to <br /> 11 using VIPER. <br /> 12 Kirby Saunders said that will be achieved with the BDA project and then attention is <br /> 13 going to on-street coverage for the responders. He said there will be deficiencies and those will <br /> 14 be identified for future expansion down the road. <br /> 15 Commissioner Richards asked what the system is in the jail currently. <br /> 16 Travis Myren said it's the old system that is 23 years old. He said the new management <br /> 17 system is part of the construction cost and is independent from the cost of the facility. He said <br /> 18 that it is a piece of software. <br /> 19 Commissioner Richards asked if the jail management system and the records <br /> 20 management system have to work together. She thought the new jail had a lot of technology <br /> 21 updates. <br /> 22 Travis Myren said that is correct and that is another reason the older system was kept in <br /> 23 place at this time. He said the newer technology included more virtual visitation and telehealth. <br /> 24 <br /> 25 Slide #37 <br /> FY2023-33 Recommended Information Technology Projects <br /> • Information Technology Infrastructure - $837,377 (p. 84) <br /> - Audio Visual EguipmenI Improvernents $167,877 <br /> - Cyber Security Initiatives $100,000 <br /> - Server and Network Upgrades $300,000 <br /> - LaptopiDesktop ReplacernentSchedule $260,500 <br /> - Total Technology Infrastructure $837,377 <br /> trallr�g torts of&bfPovart malntviantek ImIuded by year <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> ar <br /> Ivy rR��t iJ►I�QL,N�4 <br /> 26 <br /> 27 <br /> 28 <br /> 29 <br />
