Minutes

The agenda was quickly reviewed and confirmed.

It was determined that only committee members should be chairman, and only committee members should be allowed to vote for chairman.

Matt Plache was elected chairman, nominated by Will, second by Jim.

The bringing in of Matt Sullivan as a member of the committee was discussed.  It was decided that Chairman Plache would contact the BOS about either bringing him through appointment or some other means, or just having him be a non-voting advisor.

The discussion opened up to the 3rd agenda item, what the scope and role of the committee might be going forward.  

As a possible area of focus, 5G service and the meeting earlier in the morning with the EDC was mentioned.  Also mentioned was the upcoming cable contract.  

These specific areas were determined to be with our scope and focus:
1. IT budget
2. Website
3. Cable contract
4. IT backbone

How the committee may be able to help the Finance manager in working out budgets and costs and with presentations to the BOS and Budget committee was discussed. 

A charter will be developed and or modified by the committee over the next month or so.  It is likely that there is no pre-existing charter or description of the committee's role.  

Keith updated committee on the MF2 Challenge program.

Next meeting was tentatively set for 22 Jan, 11AM.

After adjournment, Jim, on landline brought up Docusign, which had been brought up in a previous meeting.  Keith will make sure it is on the agenda for the next meeting.
