[edit] Website evaluation

In October of 2009, the County Commissioners hired Computer Consulting Plus for $6,000 to upgrade the functions of the government website. Some of the new functions will include: an internal search, improved methods to update content, higher security and opportunity for officials to add their own content.[1]
