The Board considered an amendment to the Lee County Personnel Policy for Technology Use. IT Director Kyle Edwards and Deputy Attorney Dale Talbert presented the amended policy and discussed the fact that although e-mail messages used to transact county business are considered public records, the county does not have a policy requiring them to be retained long term. The county also does not have the capability to store e-mail messages for any significant period of time. The proposed amendment to the policy will cure both deficiencies by requiring the Information Technology Department to utilize a computer appliance that will immediately capture and store all e-mail messages sent or received through the county e-mail system for up to ten-years. The proposed amendment also provides for those employees who use personal e-mail accounts and alternate messaging services, such as IM, SIS, iPhone, DROID, to conduct county business. Cost of the required computer appliance equipment is approximately $18,500. After discussion, Commissioner Reives moved to approve the amendment to the Lee County Personnel Policy for Technology Use and purchase required equipment as presented. Upon a vote, the results were as follows: Aye: Dalrymple, Hayes, Kelly, Oldham, Paschal, Reives, and Shook Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously.
