Amendment Agreement For <br />Internet Infrastructure and Access Services <br />September 1, 2015 <br />Page 2 <br />that will increase dedicated internet access to 250MB (currently at 100MB). This additional <br />bandwidth will allow enough flexibility as city systems are upgraded and come online, other Cloud <br />services expand, and overall internal and external future internet service demand grows. Included <br />are additional Internet Protocol addresses necessary for connecting all applications, hardware <br />and systems to the internet. <br />Given the essential nature of internet service to the City and the potential for cost savings, the <br />City staff recommends the approval of an amendment to the agreement with Cogent <br />Communications, Inc. with discounted monthly costs for a term of three years. All other terms and <br />conditions, including the ability of the City to exit the agreement for any reason with 30 days' <br />notice, would remain. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #7, Team Santa Ana, Objective #2 (Establish <br />communication plans to engage and inform employees and the community about City activities), <br />Strategy D (invest in software /resources that will help streamline the flow of information to City <br />staff and the public). <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds are budgeted and are available in the amount of $26,000 in FY 2015 -2016 Technology <br />Plan Fund for contractual services (account no. 10910147- 62300).
