� u� II� � u� u u u u� <br /> Name of Pro�ect:Upgrades to Building-wide audio system <br /> J <br /> Project Cost: Department: Recreation and Community Programs <br /> � <br /> Cost Basis: <br /> This is an estimated cost based on input from DPF's AV Technician, Vincent LeRow. <br /> Please describe the project: <br /> The project would include updating the AV systems throughout the building, including <br /> audio upgrades to the microphones and listening devices in rooms 006, 139, 237, and <br /> 242. The current equipment is nearing end-of-life and is becoming more costly to fix. <br /> Please describe how this meets the Select Board's Nexus with COVID Pandemic: <br /> This project meets the Select Board's Nexus with the COVID Pandemic in that we are <br /> finally seeing a cautious return to services at the Community Center. While many are <br /> ready to be in person, there is still a large percentage of residents who are quite <br /> comfortable connecting from home. In order to continue to provide the Hybrid services <br /> that are currently requested, we need to have properly functioning equipment. The AV <br /> system, including the wireless microphones, assistive listening devices, projectors and <br /> monitors, are reaching end of life. Currently, when a microphone breaks we must seek <br /> one out on auction and pay a premium because the compatible ones are discontinued. <br /> The listening devices are highly outdated and consume a tremendous amount of <br /> batteries. With an updated system, we would be able to replace them with <br /> rechargeable devices. The rooms that are currently outfitted with AV will be upgraded <br /> to technology that is much more conducive to remote meetings and classes, with <br /> cameras, sound bars, and computers. <br /> Date Submitted to the Town Manager: 3,22.2023 <br /> SubmittedB : hristine Dean ommunit enter Director <br /> Y � <br />
