AGENDA REPORT ITEM NO. 2.1 Meeting Date: January 7, 2013 Budgeted: Yes To: From: Public Affairs-Communications- Technology Committee Steve Conklin, Acting General Manager Total Budget: $4,500 Cost Estimate: $247/mo. + cost per copy Account No: 1-0620-0600-20 Presented By: Art Vega, Acting IT Manager Dept: Information Technology Reviewed by Legal: Prepared By: Art Vega, Acting IT Manager CEQA Compliance: N/A Subject: SUMMARY: New Operations Department Copier Lease Pending The District currently has one Konica Minolta Bizhub C220 copy machine in the Operations Department. The lease for this copier expired on November 29, 2012. Konica Minolta has proposed replacing the Bizhub C220 with a new Bizhub C224 at a lower lease cost. Attached for the Committee's review is Konica Minolta's new lease proposal. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Committee recommend the Board of Directors authorize the Acting General Manager to execute the new Lease Agreement with Konica Minolta for a new Bizhub C224 at a cost of $247.00 per month and a unit cost of $0.07330 per color copy and $0.0124 per black and white copy DISCUSSION: The new Bizhub C224 copier is Minolta's proposed replacement for our Bizhub C220 copier in Operations. The new copier's touch-screen display works almost identically to the current copier so there would be minimal need for additional training. Konica Minolta has proposed to lower the monthly cost and per page cost with the new lease. The lease for the new copier would be $247.00 per month with a unit cost of $0.07330 per color copy and $0.0124 per black and white copy. Based on average usage, it is projected that the District will save on average $18.57 a month compared to the previous lease. The cost includes the return costs associated with the current Bizhub C220 and no remaining lease payments will be due on the old copier. PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S): On June 23, 2011, the Board authorized the General Manager to execute a Lease Agreement with Konica Minolta for the leasing of 2 new copiers for the Administration Building.

DISCUSSION: The idea was posed to the Committee after several photos were taken at Board Meetings, that "Branding" may be helpful where the photos were taken.
