Committee accepts grant-funded budget amendment to obtain higher-resolution orthoimagery
Summary
Planning staff reported a newly identified grant funded higher-resolution orthoimagery flown in April; the committee unanimously approved a 2026 budget amendment to receive and expend the grant funds and will forward the acceptance to the County Board.
Meuer briefed the committee that a grant identified after the 2026 budget was set allowed acquisition of higher-resolution orthoimagery; the aerial flight occurred in April. Committee members discussed the grant and its purpose to improve county geospatial data.
Budde moved and Ott seconded to accept the grant funding and forward the budget amendment to the County Board for acceptance; the motion carried unanimously. Staff said the amendment is needed because the grant was identified after the original budget was adopted and will allow the county to use the higher-resolution imagery for planning and GIS work.
