Summary

City staff presented a red-line amendment to a cybersecurity resolution that removed a hard-coded software version so the resolution remains compliant as standards evolve. Staff said the amendment ties to a state cybersecurity grant requirement.

City Manager Ed Spears told the council that staff proposed a minor amendment to the cybersecurity resolution in the packet: an explicit reference to a specific version of a piece of software had been removed so compliance with the "most recent standard" is sufficient as versions change.

Nut graf: Staff said the change prevents the city from having to return to council with frequent amendments when software versions are superseded. The resolution is tied to requirements attached to a cybersecurity grant the city received from the state of Florida; removing the version reference keeps the resolution aligned with current standards and grant compliance.

Council had no questions at the agenda review and staff recommended moving the resolution forward on the council agenda with the red-line change noted in the packet.

Ending: Staff linked the resolution to the grant's compliance terms and advised the council that the red-line edit removes a specific software-version reference while maintaining the city's commitment to meet current cybersecurity standards.
