Which of the following statements is true about the Technology Fee?

The statement regarding the Technology Fee being able to support both the purchase and maintenance of technology is accurate because these fees are typically designed to cover a wide range of technological needs within a municipality or organization. This includes not only the procurement of new hardware and software but also ongoing support, repairs, updates, and overall maintenance. The dual focus on both acquisition and maintenance is crucial for ensuring that technology remains functional and up-to-date, allowing municipalities to allocate resources efficiently and effectively manage their technological infrastructure.

The other statements do not reflect the broader scope of the Technology Fee. Restricting the fee solely to new technology purchases overlooks essential aspects like upkeep and operational continuity. Claiming it only applies in large cities ignores the fact that technology deployment needs exist across various municipality sizes. Lastly, stating that it can only be used for staff training expenses limits its applicability, while training is an important facet, it is not the comprehensive purpose of the Technology Fee.
