Later this month, the DeWitt County Board could make extensions on an ad hoc committee aimed at reviewing the County's ordinances and a technology committee aimed at improving the County's technological procedures.

Board Chair Joe Witte says the ad hoc committee's focus on compliance has made a lot of progress, but for all the progress they make, they find more things that need to be addressed.

According to Witte, the County Board has approved a full-time IT person for the County building because there is enough of a need for someone to assist County staff.

Extending the ad hoc committee another year would be beneficial, but Witte wonders if just forming a technology committee would be the long-term play for the County.

For the compliance focus of the ad hoc committee, Witte says technology took up so much of its focus that they weren't able to get into as much on that side of its mission as they wanted.

The DeWitt County Board could extend the ad hoc committee another year later this month.
