During a recent government meeting, officials discussed the approval of a service agreement with Just Appraise for deed management services intended for the assessor's office. The proposal aims to replace a full-time employee with a software package and training, costing approximately $15,000 annually.
The discussion highlighted the potential benefits of the software, with one official noting that while it would not entirely replace the need for a staff member, it could significantly alleviate the workload. The assessor's office has faced challenges in maintaining this position, making the software a valuable asset for improving efficiency.
After deliberation, the motion to approve the request for the SBITA package was made and seconded, resulting in unanimous support from the officials present. This decision reflects a strategic move towards enhancing operational capabilities within the assessor's office while managing budgetary constraints.
