Lee County staff updated the Finance Committee on the county's data-conversion project with Tyler Technologies, saying training is complete and a courthouse kickoff visit was scheduled for Jan. 21.

Amy, a county staff member, told the committee the county has "started receiving invoices," noting, "I just submitted, I think it was about 109,000 just this week." Treasurer Paul Rudolphi confirmed the claims office had seen some of those invoices.

Stacy, speaking for the probation office, said the department completed local training, entered cases into the system and went live on Dec. 1. "It has been a very smooth, a very easy transition," Stacy said. "This program has been very workable, very user friendly." She added that once the courts go live, the court-entered sentencing information will transfer directly into probation's view, so officers will see documents and data by the time a person walks from the courtroom to the probation office.

Committee members asked clarifying questions about billing and timelines but took no formal action; the committee received the update and will monitor invoices and future rollout steps. The committee did not set a new timetable in the meeting minutes; staff said additional briefings will follow as courts complete their migration.
