The length of the contract is three years. Mayor Sanger commented that he is supportive and that the staff has worked very hard to pair the numbers to the point to where we are as efficient as possible and would hate for the three years to go by and Brentwood decides to say “never mind” and therefore Clayton has the same number of people and wanted us to keep that in mind. He does feel that this is a good indication of cooperation between communities as well. Janet Watson stated that she feels it is a good step towards economies of scale and in a long- term atmosphere and environment she feels it could end up with large economies of scale. In response to Alderman Lintz’s question regarding Brentwood’s systems, Janet Watson stated that as far as the systems it would be a long-term decision to join systems. Larry Cawvey added that infrastructure and the city’s support system will be used to monitor the networks, devices, help desk services which they would strive to bring them on to a common platform. As far as departmental systems, i.e. Planning, Public Works, and Parks and Recreation, he does not see them standardized, and would probably be the next steps down the road. Janet Watson added that they have done a thorough evaluation of the systems currently used.
