Otisfield Select Board questions costly recreation software proposal, will seek alternatives
Summary
A recreation software vendor presented an implementation fee of $3,987 and an annual fee of $4,453; the Select Board reached consensus that the proposal was expensive and advised exploring alternatives.
Carly Taylor presented a software proposal for the Recreation Department at the Jan. 21 Select Board meeting. The package, the minutes state, would handle activity and facility reservations, registrations, marketing communications and calendar management. The proposal lists a $3,987 implementation fee and a $4,453 annual fee.
Board members expressed concern about the cost. The minutes record the board’s consensus that the proposal is notably expensive and that it should consider alternative vendors or solutions rather than accept the presented terms.
No motion to approve the software purchase was recorded on Jan. 21; the board’s direction was to research alternatives and return with further information or proposals for consideration.
