05/23/2016 MINUTES 1 <br /> COMMISSIONERS' MINUTES <br />KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br />COMMISSIONERS CONFERENCE ROOM <br />REGULAR MEETING <br /> <br />MONDAY 9:50 A.M. MAY 23, 2016 <br /> <br />Board members present: Chairman Obie O’Brien; Vice-Chairman Paul <br />Jewell & Commissioner Laura Osiadacz. <br /> <br />Others: Mandy Buchholz, Deputy Clerk of the Board & Jim Goeben, IT <br />Director; Bill Davis, System Administrator; Doug Fessler, Network <br />Administrator; Karra Bailey, LE Technologist. <br /> <br />REGULAR MEETING DEPARTMENT HEAD INFO. TECH <br /> <br />Jim Goeben, IT Director explained that the video surveillance <br />footage from the Kittitas County Courthouse, the Public Safety <br />Building, and the Sheriff’s Office is stored on a redundant hard <br />drive array in the IT datacenter. He stated that when the <br />surveillance system was initially configured, a balance was made <br />between video quality, retention, and available storage capacity. He <br />stated that with the retention a majority of the cameras were set to <br />retain footage for 30 days and subsequently the Sheriff’s office <br />made change requests to reduce retention to 7 or 14 days in order to <br />increase quality and add cameras. He stated that the Sheriff’s <br />Office is requesting IT to increase the retention time for all <br />cameras to 30 days. He explained that they have also asked about <br />increasing the video resolution on some cameras to capture more <br />detail and either request would require more storage space. <br /> <br />Mr. Goeben reviewed concerns the Board should consider as well as <br />options. He stated that it was IT’s recommendation that the BoCC <br />approve the request to purchase a redundant storage array to store <br />surveillance video with retention of 30 days (being option #1). He <br />reviewed advantages and disadvantages and explained that the budget <br />impact for the County to purchase a redundant hard drive array, <br />sufficient to retain video for 30 days and provide for anticipated <br />future growth, would cost approximately $4,268.16. <br /> <br />Commissioner Jewell moved to approve a General Fund expense of <br />$4,268.16 to purchase a redundant hard drive array, sufficient to <br />retain video for 30 days and that will provide for anticipated <br />future growth. Commissioner Osiadacz seconded. Motion carried 3-0. <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 10:00 a.m. <br /> <br /> <br />KITTITAS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
