The Cass County Board of Supervisors, Wednesday morning, will discuss and possibly act on funding for a Geographic Information System (GIS) position, and the hiring of a full-time GIS person. Cass County Assessor Brenda Nelson says she has received permission from the County Conference Board to hire an individual for the position, and has money in her current budget to pay for a GIS person. Nelson suggests other departments might be willing to chip-in and help pay for the position in subsequent years, as GIS is used in at least two other departments within the courthouse.
In other business, the Board will act on approving plans for a proposed improvement of the Secondary Road System Project for a reinforced box culvert on Boston Road over small creek. And, if ready, the Supervisors will discuss and approve entry into a 28-E agreement for Mental Health Regionalization.
Their meeting begins at 9-a.m., Wednesday.
