KINGSFORD — The Kingsford City Council on Monday approved $14,670 for new computers for City Hall, the public works building and the public safety building.

The price, from Tech Solutions in Iron Mountain, includes 10 computers plus labor, software and a government discount.

City Manager Anthony Edlebeck told the council the current computers can’t accommodate Windows 10, which the city’s computers will need to upgrade to in January.
