December 5, 2013
Information Technology/Geographic Information Systems (IT/GIS) Department
2014 Hiring Proposal
Goal: Enhance and allocate the staff resources of the County to better meet the increasing
IT/GIS demands.
New Position: GIS Analyst/IT Technician
Document the need for the request: Since the 2002 ·creation of the IT/GIS Department
responsibilities have grown exponentially - a direct result of the increasing demands of everchanging technologies. While the core mission of each Department hasn't fundamentally
changed, the role of technology has dramatically changed the way these Departments conduct
day-to-day business. In today's technology-dependent world, the IT/GJS Department is critical
to the success of virtually every other County department and function. See the attached goals
for details of specific current or future duties of the IT/GJS Department.
Any/all other options considered: The proposal goes beyond the proposed hiring of a G IS
Analyst/IT Technician. It also proposes leveraging existing staff by collaborating between the
IT/GIS Department and other Departments to meet some of the IT/GIS responsibilities, including
formalizing the existing partnership with the Circuit Clerk and Assessor to provide IT support
and G IS parcel map maintenance, and training/empowering a staff member in larger
Departments to perform basic IT functions and oversee Department software programs updates
and maintenance.
Explain the financial impact: See attached information.
Benefit: Maximize staff resources in order to complete large-scale projects in a timely manner,
free-up staff time to be able to perform administrative responsibilities and accomplish
uncompleted goals identified in the GIS and IT Implementation Plans adopted by the Board in
2001-2002. See attached information for specific examples of goals and projects.
