Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution authorizes a ten-year contract with Access Information Management of WI, LLC (Access) for storage of the City’s physical records. The total cost per month will be determined based on the quantity of records stored at Access, but is estimated to be under $2,500 per month. The cost will be billed directly to agencies that are using the service. The estimated cost is comparable to the City’s current cost for records storage services with the State of Wisconsin, which is discontinuing this service to the City. The cost of records storage will be included in agency operating budgets for 2023. No additional appropriation is required.
