Summary

The Board approved transitioning county email accounts to a .gov domain, with initial costs of about $4,000 and annual costs estimated at $14,460; the IT coordinator will apply for a Secure South Dakota grant to offset first‑year expenses.

Information Technology Coordinator Caryn Hojer told the Board that switching the county’s email service to a .gov domain would cost approximately $4,000 initially and about $14,460 annually going forward. Hojer said she would apply for a Secure South Dakota grant to offset the first year’s expense.

The Board authorized Hojer to proceed with the transition (motion by Commissioner Steve Spilde, second by Commissioner Corey Lundquist; all present voted aye). The motion records the county’s anticipated cost profile and the plan to seek grant funding to reduce the initial fiscal impact.
