ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: December 11, 2007 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. ~- - e <br />SUBJECT: Negotiations with Property Information Management System Software Vendors <br />DEPARTMENT: Information Technologies, Tax PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />Assessor, Revenue, Purchasing <br />ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Todd Jones, (919) 245-2285 <br />John Smith, (919) 245-2101 <br />Jo Roberson, (919) 245-2727 <br />Pam Jones, (919) 245-2652 <br />PURPOSE: To obtain approval to negotiate with Property Information Management System <br />software vendors and related consultants for project management and specialized legal counsel <br />in order to develop a contract proposal for implementation of a new land records and property <br />taxation system. <br />BACKGROUND: The County has relied on an internally developed software system for <br />tracking and managing land records, property valuation and payment data for 29 years.
