Commissioners initially table GIS data agreement from WTH/CoreLogic, later approve contract after review
Summary
An electronic map data agreement requesting use of county GIS data was tabled for review and later approved by the board after staff consideration.
The Jennings County commissioners discussed an electronic map data application agreement from WTH/CoreLogic seeking use of the county's geographic information system (GIS) data. Auditor Alex briefed the board that CoreLogic, based in Florida, requested access and offered reimbursement in return.
Because the auditor had not had time to fully review the agreement, commissioners first voted to table the request to allow Alex to examine terms and the money portion. "I think there's no reason to not table it to allow Alex to try to review it," one commissioner said; a motion to table passed unanimously.
Later in the meeting, after staff review, commissioners voted to approve the WTH contract (motion and second recorded; vote unanimous). The transcript does not include the final contract dollar amount or specific reimbursement terms. Commissioners did not record additional conditions in the meeting minutes.
The action moves access decision from preliminary review toward implementation; the auditor's office is the implementing department and will manage the agreement paperwork.
