CONSIDER COST FOR FUTURE ELECTION NIGHT COMPUTER
LINKAGE WITH VENTURA COUNTY ELECTIONS DIVISION
The County Elections Division has informed us that they will no
longer provide CRT's for election night voting information and will
begin to charge a modem line connection fee for any city who wants
to be linked by city owned personal computer. In order to link
via Moorpark City computer, Data General CRT simulation software
would need to be purchased.
The costs for linkage with the County are as follows:

The County has requested an immediate answer as to whether we want
to participate in this program. If the City elects to participate,
we will be billed when the County does its November election
billings for $360.00 and additionally spend approximately $175.00
for Data General CRT simulation software. Next November, when our
regularly scheduled municipal election is held, we will be charged
$100.00. The total to participate in the program will be $460.00
every two years and an additional $100 for every special election
we hold.
The options are:
1. Determine that we will participate in the program and
appropriate $535.00, ($360.00 to cover the County billing and
$175.00 for the simulation software); or
2. Determine to forego election night computer linkage.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Direct staff as deemed appropriate.
