change in management for Old Hickory Smokehouse and Tavern and recommended approval; there

system installation is the last part of this process. In response to Commissioner Conway, Mr. Wallace
said work at the back-up center will be conducted 24/7 for seven days straight on a monthly basis. In
response to Commissioner Garcia's question, Mr. Wallace explained that at the time of the original
contract the planning for the back-up center was not yet underway, and finding a vendor was difficult
because of the age of the software and equipment, and, in conclusion, Motorola's expertise is
appreciated. He confirmed the existing office furniture from this site was used to outfit the new
