Lazy Lake evaluates cloud records system and reviews accounting‑firm proposals
Summary
Administration is evaluating cloud‑based records storage (estimated ~$350/month) and council reviewed three accounting‑firm proposals (estimated $250–$300/month) that cited concerns about limited system access and unresolved historical accounting issues.
The council received an update on digitizing village records and on efforts to identify a new accounting firm.
Administration said it is evaluating cloud-based document storage solutions, including Google Government cloud services, with an estimated cost of approximately $350 per month; the solution would enable document storage, keyword searching, records indexing, and public records retrieval. Separately, Councilmember Dana Merrill reported contacting four accounting professionals; three firms responded with proposals estimating $250–$300 per month (about $100 more than the previous firm). Responding firms identified concerns that prevented them from accepting the engagement: the need for limited access to financial accounts (access restricted to the accounting firm, the village attorney, and village clerk) and unresolved historical accounting issues.
