BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: September 16, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Don Vanderhoek
SUBJECT: Payment to CenturyLink
DEPARTMENT: Information Systems
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Board is requested to approve payment to CenturyLink in the
amount of $28,926.64 for past due charges.
BACKGROUND: In March of 2011 CenturyLink went to a new billing system. Their new
system did not have our discounts applied which resulted in an increase of $4,000.00 per month.
Payment of the previous amount was made until CenturyLink corrected their billing. This was a
longer process than anticipated which resulted in a past due amount of $28,926.64. Funding to
pay this amount was approved by the Board at the August 5th meeting.
Included with this Agenda Request is the analysis of the CenturyLink billing provided by the
Finance Department.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends the Board approve payment to CenturyLink in
the amount of $28,926.64 for past due charges.
