Select board approves migration of land records to cloud‑hosted system
Summary
After reviewing options and costs, the board voted unanimously to move the town’s land‑records module to a cloud‑hosted system; one‑time setup was estimated at $750 plus ongoing per‑user fees and an estimated first‑year cost around $1,100.
Staff presented problems with the town’s existing land‑records software and recommended a cloud‑hosted replacement that would provide remote access and reduce the need for frequent on‑site updates. The presenter described a $750 setup fee and monthly user fees of roughly $10–$13 per user; the board voted to proceed with the cloud‑based system, the motion carrying 5–0.
Board members discussed timing (some suggested waiting until reappraisal work completes), the number of users likely (two to three seats), and who would cover initial costs if budgeted funds are needed. "It's $750 and then the user fee is, I think, 10 to $13 a month per user," the staff speaker said while outlining recurring costs. The board asked staff to work out implementation scheduling and to present a plan for ongoing recurring charges.
