The City is interested in doir3 this a2 a toot to compare

The City Attorney informed Council that a Joint Powers

dation for machine or lata processing needs within the & recom. re:

data process.
In his recommendation, the City Administrator looked needs within
at several alternatives, as follows: City
(1) Purchase of an accounting machine for (tabled to
Accounting Department, and abandonment 9/7/71)
of all present EDP applications.
(2) Continued rental of present EDP equip-
ment, with certain reductions in costs.
(3) Purchase of present EDP equipment.
(4) Maintain data processirgapplications by
leasing time on another user's 1130
computer.
It was his recommendation that Alternate Jf4 (the leased
time on another user's computer) would be in the best
interests of the City because it would maintain the
present programs, there would be no conversion costs,
and would allow for continied development of -data
processing applications, all at a machine cost of less
than one-third of the present cost of machine rental.
It was noted that the Accounting Director was not
present because of illness, and that the Police Chief.
was not present because of vacation, and these two
persons would be most irvolvrd in the effects of the
decision in this matter. Therefore, it was felt that
a decision in this matter should be delayed until such
time as these Department Heads could be present.

It would be jeopardizing the water supply to its

Moved by Councilman Rubio, seconded by Councilman Snyder
