62. AMENDMENT TO FIVE-YEAR MAJOR MAINTENANCE PLAN FOR DATA CENTER GENERATOR Pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17106(b), approve the transfer of expenditure appropriation in the amount of $1,543,432 from the FY 2010-11 Non-Departmental (470) General Fund (100) Non-Recurring/Non-Project (0001) to a new Major Maintenance project in Public Works Department (910) General Fund (100)entitled “Data Center Generator.” Within Non-Departmental the amount to be transferred will be taken from “General Contingency.” This action approves one-time contingency funds to install a generator that will provide redundancy on the emergency power for the enterprise level data center located within the building. This data center will house the equipment for the new Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) voice system for Maricopa County as well as provide stability to the relocation of the data center currently in the lower level of the Administration building. The data center is currently under design to house 35 Server cabinets (60% normal – 40% blade technology), 2 tape libraries (full size enterprise model), 5 storage arrays (full size enterprise model), and 8 network cabinets. This will have a net impact of zero on the 2010-11 Budget. (C-91-11-073-2-00)
