PUBLIC AGENDA SESSION MARCH 20, 2014 104 noted they also need to do more research on certification of vendors that do the installation. Mr. Hudak stated he already did and found only three (3) or four (4). He added that certification doesn't necessarily have to do with the installation. - Government Contract Order — SBC Global Services Mr. Horvath questioned if the City should explore the possibility of connecting to the Metronet, rather than continuing to contract for T1 Data Lines. He noted it is a better system and less expensive. He stated his main concern is the length of the contract at three (3) years. If the Metronet is not available now, there's a good possibility it will be before the end of three (3) years. He stated he would be more comfortable with a shorter term, and suggested at least just do six (6) months to a year. Ms. Roos requested Mr. Horvath and Ms. Boyles look into the feasibility of connecting to the Metronet at the golf courses and recreation centers and stated the Board will most likely table this if it is not ready by Tuesday. PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR Mr. Murray Miller, Local No. 645, questioned if the same specifications used last year, were being used again this year for the Infrared Pavement Patching. Ms. Greene stated they are using last year's specifications which were redone last year.
