3 <br /> Information Technologies staff is also investigating the feasibility of developing mobile apps of <br /> some of these tools which could run on iPhones, iPads and Android devices. <br /> As shown in the spreadsheet comparing Orange County's online services with those of other <br /> North Carolina counties, Orange County's variety and completeness of online services is among <br /> the leaders, if not the leader, in the state of North Carolina. The Information Technologies <br /> Department continues to partner with other departments to identify additional areas in which <br /> government information and services can be made available over the Internet. These ongoing <br /> efforts include: continuing study of peer counties' efforts, review of vendor enhancement plans, <br /> outreach to the community on what the public would like to see available, and internal <br /> brainstorming on capabilities that may position Orange County as pioneers for certain services. <br /> Information Technologies appreciates the strong support from the Board of County <br /> Commissioners in these endeavors, as well as the excellent collaboration from other Orange <br /> County departments. Staff is confident that the County can maintain and expand its position as <br /> leaders in online services through continued efforts to excel in these areas. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact to receiving this presentation. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board receive the presentation <br /> on Orange County's implementation of online services and provide any recommendations and <br /> directions for future expansion of these services. <br />
