The CCS has a complex series of custom tools within ArcGIS that are needed to complete complex analysis for the System. These tools may not be coded in the most efficient way, and two tools at this moment isn't functioning as they should. Our staff has limited coding ability to understand the issues and to fix the coding errors. We are hoping to have a person who can be available on a sporadic basis long term, who can learn and understand our System so we don't have to retrain over and over. We need someone initially to fix the two sets of codes that are not working efficiently. Over time, as more updates are needed, we would like this person to be a main contact for updates or coding issues as they arise. Nothing is foreseen as urgent that they would need to be "on call", but as their schedule allows. We have been budgeted for, at this moment, $50,000 per year to spend on IT updates, billed hourly.
