Purpose

To authorize the acquisition of contracted programming services through Robert Half Technologies.

Background

The application in use by Plannong and Zoning for land use permitting and related business was developed roughly 15 years ago using Microsoft Access.   Over time this application has undergone numerous updates and changes and has grown to a point where it is essential to the departments business and workflow.  Due limitations in MS Access, the application suffers from usability and security limitations.  To create a sustainable and secure application interface, we are seeking to hire custom programming services through Robert Half Technologies, a technical and employment agency.  The programmer we seek to hire is familiar with the system and our requirements.

Budget Status (Other/External Sources): 

The CPZ Dept has funding available through a number of budgeted sources
