CHAIRWOMAN'S REMARKS - CHAIR YOO  
Chair Yoo said the August 1st County Municipal Roundtable will include an expert in  
cybersecurity and ransomware. She encouraged members to invite village mayors and managers  
from their districts. She said it will be held at 10:00am here at the County. Mr. McPhearson said  
it will be held in 3-500B as well as offer a virtual option. He said their focus will be on helping  
municipalities and smaller organizations who do not have a team to figure out what they should  
do in case they get hit with ransomware. He said at a minimum, it will give them a high-level  
plan of what to do, how to plan ahead for an attack, and what next steps they should take to  
mitigate it.  
Chair Yoo said within this roundtable there are supposed to be two task forces: one for  
cybersecurity and one for AI. She said the AI task force currently only has two to three  
municipalities. She said she hopes members encourage their municipalities to also join this task  
force. She said at the end of July, we will have an organization holding a free workshop that will  
explain AI and its uses and how it can best be used by municipalities.

PROCUREMENT REQUISITIONS  
6.A.  
Recommendation for the approval of a contract to AT&T Mobility II LLC d/b/a AT&T  
Mobility - National Act, to provide wireless services including basic cellular voice, smart  
phones, wireless data, and push-to-talk, for County departments, for the period of July 25,  
2024 through July 24, 2027, for a contract total amount not to exceed $1,481,535, per the  
Intergovernmental Agreement between the County of DuPage and National Association  
of State Procurement Officers (NASPO) Master Agreement #149. This contract is subject  
to two (2) additional twelve (12) month renewals.  
Member Carrier asked if we should be concerned with the outages that AT&T has  
experienced in the last couple of months. Mr. McPhearson said we are not, as that  
typically happens with all carriers. He said they have not had any major outages that have  
had a serious impact to our service. He said in addition to us not worrying about it, the  
big reason we are pushing for this particular contract is for our first responders. He  
explained that AT&T is the only vendor who offers FirstNet, so if there are any major  
outages or catastrophes that shuts down access for everyone else, this automatically gives  
our first responders direct priority over everyone else. He said there is no other contract  
that offers that.
