The resolution is required by the State and qualifies the <br />County to receive a grant award, on a matching basis, for the remapping <br />and GIS projects. <br />BACKGROUND: Counties seeking grant funds from the State Department of <br />Environment Health & Natural Resources, for improving their land records, <br />must pass a resolution of participation each year to qualify for the <br />matching grant award. Orange County has received matching funds, and has <br />participated in the program, since 1979. With these funds the County has <br />been able to support its multi -year, multi - phased remapping program, and <br />the implementation of GIS. Funds for grants are determined each year by <br />the General Assembly. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S) : that the board of Commissioners adopt the participation <br />resolution, and authorizes its Chair to sign a copy to be forwarded to <br />the State Department of Environment Health & Natural Resources. <br />
