Columbia giving digital upgrades to ancient system for streaming city meetings
The Daily Herald
The city is investing in new technology to provide a much-needed upgrade to how it records and streams city meetings to the public.
The item, which includes a $91,818 contract to AVI-SPL digital workforce service provider, included in this month s Columbia City Council consent agenda, was adopted Thursday during the board s July regular meeting.
Earlier this month during the council s study session, MIS Director Rick Harrison said the current technology has reached its replacement cycle and is considered inadequate for modern communications. This is primarily due to running on an analog system, as well as the growing digital workplace demands that have arisen due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
