Commission declines CivicPlus premium minutes/agenda implementation, citing cost and scale
Granite County commissioners considered an optional CivicPlus add-on that would provide meeting-management tools, agenda templates, and a minutes-drafting module for up to five county boards.
County staff presented the quote and described the feature set; the implementation proposal included a startup and recurring annual cost. Commissioners expressed concern that the module’s roughly $7,325 initial pricing and additional recurring fees (several thousand dollars annually) were not justified by the county’s current needs and scale.
A motion to decline the premium implementation passed. Commissioners said the new county website will be launched soon and that staff will continue to use existing agenda and minutes templates; the commission asked staff to continue building the new county site and to revisit additional features only if future operational needs change.
No contract was signed for the CivicPlus premium minutes/agenda module.
