While renovating the old Emergency Medical Services building, Riley County is updating it to better house the Fire Department’s Information Technology. At Monday’s meeting, the county’s IT director spoke about the process of moving the technology over. This project is estimated to cost $800,000.
“To start with, the building doesn’t have a generator, so we have to have a generator installed and put in,” said Corey Meyer, director of IT. “All of our services right now, all our internet, all those things, our entire services room, all those pieces would need to move over into that building.”
Meyer said the IT department would also have to redo the communications wiring between the two buildings to move the existing equipment.
