Almost all county departments are on a intra-govern- mental network and work is continuing to connect the others. In addition, efforts are being made to establish a county Internet connection that would allow the public to access certain public records by PC.

The to-be-established purchasing department can serve as the Office of Technology if persons with the appro- priate background and training staff the department. While funds were allocated this year to perform the net- working and other tasks related to the computer envi- ronment, no technology fund was established for future replacement of PCs and software.

R3Page 22This year’s budget process was, according to all ac- counts, an easier and more cooperative one than in past years. Thus the allocation of funds to the necessary computer networking of intra-government departments is laudable. A concern remains when a lean budget and the need to make large expenditures for software and equipment occur simultaneously. The 1998-99 Grand Jury concurs with the previous Grand Jury in believing the establishment of a technol- ogy replacement contingency fund would be a judicious act on the part or the Board of Supervisors. CONCLUSION: Great progress has been made to bring the county gov- ernment up to date in the computer world but our con- cern for future technology acquisition remains. 30-DAY RESPONSES REQUESTED FROM: Board of Supervisors and County Data Processing Personnel.
