a <br />COMMISSIONER LOY ASKED WHETHER THE PROPOSED EXPANSION IS <br />MERELY AN UPGRADING IN ORDER TO BE IN A POSITION TO HANDLE THE ADDI- <br />TIONAL WORK AND WHETHER WE WOULD STILL BE ABLE TO USE EVERYTHING WE <br />HAVE NOW. <br />MR. MATTHEWS STATED THAT IS CORRECT AND NOTED THAT HE HAS <br />MADE THIS SAME UPGRADE BEFORE AND IT IS A VERY SIMPLE PROGRAM. HE <br />INFORMED THE BOARD THAT THE PROGRAMS WRITTEN ON THE COMPUTOR WE HAVE <br />NOW WILL GO DIRECTLY TO A NEW COMPUTER. THIS SYSTEM ISNOT IN "COBALT." <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT BROUGHT UP THE MATTER OF DISCUSSING <br />THIS PROPOSED EXPANSION WITH THE OTHER CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICERS, AND <br />CHAIRMAN WODTKE STATED THAT THE PROPERTY APPRAISER HAS INDICATED AN <br />INTEREST AND EVEN WENT SO FAR AS TO REQUEST THAT THE COUNTY NOT MAKE <br />ANY LONG TERM COMMITMENTS WITHOUT TALKING TO HIM IN REGARD TO HIS <br />FUTURE NEEDS. THE CHAIRMAN SUGGESTED THAT ONE COMMISSIONER, THE <br />CLERK OF CIRCUIT COURT, AND MR. MATTHEWS MEET WITH THE PROPERTY <br />APPRAISER TO DISCUSS THIS MATTER, AS HE FELT IT WOULD BE FOR THE <br />BENEFIT OF THE TAXPAYER. <br />'CHAIRMAN WODTKE CONTINUED THAT, WITH THE UNDERSTANDING <br />THAT WE ARE NOT PLACING AN ORDER, HE FELT WE COULD SEND OUT THE <br />LETTER OF INTENT. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT STATED THAT HE NEEDS A LITTLE MORE <br />.CONVINCING THAT THE URGENCY OF THIS IS SUCH THAT IT HAS TO COME <br />UNDER THIS YEAR S BUDGET, AND HE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOME TIME TO <br />DISCUSS THIS MORE THOROUGHLY WITH MR. MATTHEWS. <br />MR, MATTHEWS SAID THAT HE IS AVAILABLE TO REVIEW THIS AND <br />HE FELT TOUCHING BASE WITH MR. LAW COULD TAKE SEVERAL MORE WEEKS. <br />HE NOTED THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO ISSUE HIS DRAFTED LETTER, IF POSSIBLE. <br />COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER•NOTED THAT HE IS NOT COMPLETELY <br />SOLD ON HOW THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE BIGGER COMPUTER, <br />ESPECIALLY WITHOUT ADDITIONAL PERSONNEL. <br />OUT 19 19,11-71 31 PAU'2307 <br />
