Summary

The county's HR presenter asked for funding to evaluate and potentially implement a modern applicant tracking system (current system is outdated and not mobile friendly), plus modest increases for travel/training and office supplies (color toner).

The county's human resources presenter asked commissioners to consider a new budget line to evaluate applicant tracking software. "Respectfully requesting, a new new budget item. That's the, applicant tracking software," the presenter said, noting the current system is not web based, has limited vendor support, and limits outreach to applicants.

HR also said travel and training lines rose modestly because of conference fee increases and recommended one in‑person cybersecurity conference for the risk manager; office‑supply costs rose due to color toner needs and a modest equipment request ($350) for a presenter workstation. Commissioners did not make a decision and asked for follow‑up as part of the non‑departmental review.
