Next: The resolution was referred to the full RTM; outcome not read.
Details
The Town's required 20 percent match (about 6,830 dollars) was already spent in fiscal year 2025, so no new Town money is requested.
The software was bought through a statewide cooperative purchasing agreement, which staff said gave a volume price.
Full RTM heard the Finance Committee report and approved the resolution by voice vote, unanimously, 34 to 0 to 0; staff said the match was cash already spent and the product is now a recurring operating expense.
Heard the resolution to accept the grant; members asked what endpoint detection is and how the price compared; voted by voice with no opposition or abstentions.
