The Geary County Commission has signed an IT agreement with Nextec. Commissioner Whitebread said that the agreement with Nextec will range from the replacement of computers to general servicing of equipment.

“Everybody will have the same type of computers, they’ll all be on the same programs; because we’re having too many problems, some people have old computers and they don’t get the new programs and we think that [it] will correct a lot of our problems here in the building,” said Whitebread.

The building Whitebread referenced is the Geary County Office Building.
