RESOLUTION 17-09-2, A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF OPEN ROADS DESIGNER PERPETUAL LICENSE DESIGN SOFTWARE FROM BENTLEY SYSTEMS IN THE AMOUNT OF $7,552.30 AND AN ANNUAL MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT OF $2,158.00:

Brown stated any purchase over $10,000 requires had to be approved by the Board and that was why this agenda item was added. He stated since the packet was distributed he discovered that credits were available due to the purchase of previous software which then brought the cost under $10,000. He noted the memo and resolution were then revised to reflect the change even though he was authorized to approve the purchase. He noted that the revised memo and resolution were updated on the website and the file copy as well as the agenda.

He noted that the savings was substantial, but the annual maintenance agreement was necessary to stay current with updates for the latest software. He noted this would be an ongoing expense that would be handled through the budgeting process.

He stated the software would be used by Engineer Hedrick and that she had used this software and it was needed for her to do in-house design work.

There being no further questions, Johnson moved, Colravy seconded, “TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 17-09-2, A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF OPEN ROADS DESIGNER PERPETUAL LICENSE DESIGN SOFTWARE FROM BENTLEY SYSTEMS IN THE AMOUNT OF $7,552.30 AND AN ANNUAL MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT OF $2,158.00.” ROLL CALL: ALL YES.
