Lake County surveyor seeks transfer to fund GIS data cleanup; state seed grant for NextGen 911 cited
Summary
Matt Cash, GIS administrator, asked commissioners to authorize transferring county funds to cover a third-party vendor for an address-point and centerline data-cleanup project, and noted a state Office of Technology seed grant to prepare county data for NextGen 911.
Matt Cash, the GIS administrator in the surveyor—s office, told county officials he is requesting a transfer of funds to pay a third-party vendor to clean up county address points and centerline data, and that the work is supported by a state Office of Technology seed grant intended to ready county datasets for NextGen 911. "It's a data cleanup project with our address points and centerline data," Cash said. "That—s going to be used to pay the third party vendor for the cleanup project."
The request covers moving money between county line items into professional services and accepting or applying a state seed grant that helps counties ready parcel and addressing data for enhanced emergency-call routing. Cash said the grant is being administered by the state office of technology and is designed to ensure county datasets are compatible with NextGen 911 systems.
County officials asked clarifying questions about the transfer and its relation to the grant; Cash confirmed the transfer is "all related" and that the vendor payment would be covered by the transferred funds. The transcript does not record a formal vote or final action on the transfer during the excerpt provided.
If approved, the project would update address and centerline records used by dispatch and emergency services systems; officials did not provide a timeline for completion in the transcript. The county will likely bring the transfer back for formal action in a subsequent meeting.
