Summary

The board approved a Schneider GIS training package (24 hours) through 2028 for $11,777 to be paid from the recorder compliance fund; staff described the model as on‑demand, remote training tailored to staff questions rather than multi‑day classroom sessions.

The technology committee recommended purchasing 24 hours of Schneider GIS training to support county staff and keep the GIS program current without hiring a full‑time GIS employee. A staff presenter described the format as an issue‑driven block of hours that can be deployed for remote help rather than a one‑time, multi‑day class.

The contract term was noted as the Schneider vendor's minimum (through 2028) and the total cost presented to the board was $11,777, to be paid from the recorder compliance fund. Commissioners asked why the term extended to 2028 and staff explained vendor pricing structure and the minimum contract length; the board approved the contract by roll call.
