DECEMBER 19, 2016 Board members present: Chairman Obie O’Brien; Vice-Chairman Paul Jewell; Commissioner Laura Osiadacz. Others: Mandy Buchholz, Deputy Clerk of the Board; Jim Goeben, IT Director; Lisa Young, HR Director; Sarah Maes, Program Assistant and Mickey Webb, Event Center Director. REGULAR MEETING DEPARTMENT HEAD KVEC Mickey Webb, Event Center Director requested the BoCC to reconsider their decision to delay the EventPro Software project. He explained that this is their slow season so the timing is good for them to bring in the new software and allow Staff time to learn it. He stated that if the BoCC waits untill a new Director is hired they will end up not being able to implement the new software until 2018, due to the seasonal busy times and depending on how long it takes to fill the Director position. Commissioner Jewell explained that he was not present during the discussion but felt he understood how the other Board members came to the decision to delay until a new Director is hired. He explained why they wanted to wait until a new Director was hired before committing to the new program. He stated that it’s still in the budget so it’s not that they don’t support the request for the program, they just want to wait untill a new Director is hired and up to speed, before they put the responsibility of a new software program on their plate too. Meeting adjourned at 9:50 a.m. KITTITAS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS DEPUTY CLERK OF THE BOARD KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON Mandy Buchholz Obie O’Brien, Chairman
