Umitial disclaimer, if I happen to create the wrong number, you'll just have to pardon me because I have an uh agenda with my notes on it that's slightly older than the current agenda.

So I'll just ask for your grace in advance.

Is that my but you can share mine if you'd like all right?

Uh we will start with our consent agenda items number seven is the minutes.

Council, any questions on the minutes?

Okay,

This is hardware and software, all in one combines a few different uh items.

Um

yes, so we actually use Granicus for our um agenda management software, fors and commissions, our city website, as well as our open records freedom of information act items, which is called GoQA.

So this is a c accumulation um for the next five years of all those products.

We're um compiling everything into one contract under Granicus through tips, which is why you'll see this item like this.

Is this an improvement over the system the program that we used for the boards and commissions?

Remember the applications we had last time?

Yeah, so um right now we actually have already implemented the new boards and commissions sort of software.

So this next process you'll see that fully implemented, but we do have a new um system for people to apply for a board of commission, and then on the back end we're able to um compile data a lot easier and get that information to y'all much in a much more streamlined process.
