To improve the usability of the Town's websites and to improve the ease with which public records from our governing boards and committees are stored the Town of Dartmouth will implement a cloud-based system to manage the those documents.
This systems will allow for improvements in continuity of operations, maintenance of records, and public access. This system will improve efficiency by centralizing the information and job functions related to the management of boards and commissions.
The information stored on this database will include current and historical membership of each board and committee and commission, contact details, titles, term details, and vacancies. Second, this program would eliminate manual tasks, including accepting applications, tracking required ethics and conflict of interest training, and meeting attendance. Third, this new system will ensure continuity of operations by allowing multiple departments and committee members to create back-end accounts, access data, and update content in their specific board and commission sections.
Currently, this data is retained and managed by a Town Hall staff member.
The implementation of this program will improve online public access to public records produced by those boards, committees, and commissions. Meaning that residents would no longer need to submit a public records request for information.
The project is expected to cost $8,725 and is funded through the Massachusetts CCC FY24 IT Grant. The new platform is expected to be available to the public by June 2024.
