E. Hills considers new IT service contracts

Deputy treasurer says necessary to avoid security breach

BY CAMERYN OAKES

The Village of East Hills Board of Trustees listened to a presentation at its meeting Tuesday night for a new contracted IT service provider for the village, which they say is necessary to avoid a security breach.

The presentation was provided by Deputy Treasurer Richard Cassar, who said the village had so far been providing a “Band-Aid fix” to its IT problems. The total cost for these fixes amounted to $12,973 in 2022 and $9,000 in 2021.

He said the village has never contracted a paid service provider for its IT.
