During the Freestone County Commissioners Court meeting held on October 15, 2025, several important agenda items were discussed and approved to enhance the county’s infrastructure and operational efficiency.
The Garland Company provided a comprehensive assessment of the roof at Annex III/Federal Building. The Freestone County Commissioners Court has authorized the solicitation of sealed bids for the roof replacement project. Currently, there is a notable leak in the lower section of the building, specifically above the server area. Both the upper and lower roof sections are experiencing ponding water, which has contributed to the accelerated deterioration of the roofing materials. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for October 20, with bid submissions due by October 24. The preliminary estimate for repairs to the server room alone is approximately $49,000. The estimated costs for a complete roof replacement are approximately $180,000 for a 25-year warranty and $202,500 for a 30-year warranty, representing comprehensive, long-term solutions.
Following a review, an agreement was approved between Inflection Point LLC and the Freestone County Sheriff’s Office. This agreement pertains to the implementation of mobile device management software for the laptops used in deputy vehicles, ensuring integration with the CAT system within dispatch. The arrangement includes a monthly fee of $50 per Proactive Workstation (20 units needed), as well as a single monthly fee of $300 for Proactive Network Management. After applying a 15% referral discount, the total monthly cost amounts to $1,232.50. Additionally, the agreement encompasses a one-time fee of $1,195.00 for outdoor equipment, which will facilitate secure data downloading from the vehicles via a connected device, effectively functioning as a secure Wi-Fi extender.
Similarly, an agreement was approved for mobile device management software for the laptops used by Constables Precincts 2 and 3, the District Attorney Investigator, and Emergency Management. This includes a monthly fee of $50 per Proactive Workstation (4 units needed), as well as a single monthly fee of $100 for Proactive Network Management, resulting in a total monthly cost of $255 after applying a 15% referral discount. Approval was also granted for infrastructure enhancements, including the installation of access points for the MDM software, a wireless access point to support wireless iPad access for Adult Probation, and a wireless access point for District Court, with a total cost of $1,276.
