At the August 17, 1994, meeting of the Council of Public Officials, the
Council voted unanimously to create a technological task force and to ask the
member governments to coordinate their purchase and use of advanced
technology with the task force. The purpose of this request is to ensure
that public monies are spent in a coordinated manner, which would allow
better communication between the member governments and perhaps result in
economies of scale in purchase and maintenance of standard equipment.
Enclosed is a copy of a suggested resolution which you may wish to adopt. It
was passed by the Board of County Commissioners on September 6, 1994. The
resolution would require that your staff bring advanced technology matters to
the task force before decisions on purchase or use are made.
If you have any questions concerning the task force, the Chairman is Mr. Mark
Mucher, and he can be reached at the office of the Indian River County
Property Appraiser (567-8000, Ext. 555 or by FAX at 770-5087).
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
Sincerely,
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
