$1,050,260 to continue providing hardware and software maintenance services and support, and extend the term from

BACKGROUND:
In accordance with the Federal Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002, Contra Costa County is required to have a
voting system in place that allows voters with physical and/or visual impairments to vote confidentially and
unassisted. The Board of Supervisors approved the initial purchase, licensing, and support of the ES&S voting
system on January 11, 2005. This extension provides for licensing, maintenance and support required to continue to
use the voting system.
