The City currently employs a Java-based system for maintenance staff to access the various Building Automation Control Systems throughout municipal facilities. This system is nearing obsolescence and will not be supported by Windows 11 operating systems. Java based systems are also not as secure against cyber-attacks and the City’s IT Department recommends a server-based system such as the one proposed.
The upgrade includes all hardware, graphics and programing required to upgrade the 12 systems currently in place. The locations are as follows:
City Hall 757 North Galloway Avenue
Animal Shelter & Adoption Center 1650 Gross Road
Mesquite Arts Center 1527 North Galloway Avenue
Service Center 1101 East Main Street
Florence Recreation Center 2501 Whitson Way
Community Services Building 1616 North Galloway Avenue

Mesquite Police Building 777 North Galloway Avenue
