A work group comprised of a number of department <br /> heads has begun to discuss the issues and priorities that will shape this plan. <br /> The Strategic Automation Plan is being prepared so that it will tie in to the 1997-2007 Capital <br /> Improvements Plan and the 1997-98 operating budget. Information Systems Director Dick Taylor <br /> will make a brief presentation about the work group's initial efforts, and will respond to any <br /> comments or questions the Board may have. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board receive the report for <br /> information only at this time -an additional presentation to the Board is planned for Spring 1997. <br />
