Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve the Professional Services Contract and direct staff accordingly. If the contract is not approved, the City's SCADA system would become out of date. This could result in the inability of staff to respond to system issues in a timely manner. It could also necessitate the hiring of staff to perform functions that would otherwise be automated or additional trained technical staff to operate the SCADA system.
