Deputy administrator updates on codification, new 911 system and ongoing burn ban
Summary
Deputy county administrator reported a multi-year codification project with a May 26 public hearing on the new county code, explained the county replaced its computer-assisted dispatch system to streamline 911 operations, and reminded the public that an outdoor burn ban remains in effect due to dry conditions.
Deputy County Administrator (S5) told commissioners the county is near completion of a three-year codification project that will convert county ordinances into a searchable code; the Board has set a public hearing for May 26 to consider adoption. He said the county replaced its prior computer-assisted dispatch (CAD) system with a new vendor (Southern Software), reducing the number of call types and aiming to improve dispatcher efficiency and response times.
The deputy also reminded the commission that an outdoor burn ban remains in effect because of drought conditions. He reported the county is nearly fully staffed at the 911 center (two positions open) and said grant funding covered most replacement costs for the CAD upgrade. He also briefed commissioners on event planning: the county allocated $50,000 toward a July 'Liberty at the Lake' festival and had secured about $9,000 in sponsorships to date.
