In the “Other Key Policy Items” section of the FY 2026–2027 budget message, the Town notes a 40% increase in its IT services contract, absorbed in the contract services line, with Water & Sewer sharing $40,584 of the increase and the General Fund carrying $64,416. The Town also budgets an additional $21,000 for Flock camera maintenance to keep neighborhood cameras operational under grant award terms. These details show that the Town is already engaged with an incumbent IT services provider and is maintaining a Flock Safety camera system, but also that technology spend is growing and cross-departmental cost-sharing is being formalized.For IT managed service providers, cybersecurity firms, and public safety tech vendors, this is useful incumbent intelligence and a cue to prepare for future renewal or expansion conversations, such as broader network modernization, camera integration, storage, and analytics once current agreements approach their next term decision point.

The IT services vendor is not named; the Town emphasizes no expected degradation in service despite the 40% cost increase, suggesting expanded scope or inflationary pressures.
