Fiscal Court Contributes to GPS/GIS System Upgrade

 

SHELBYVILLE, KY.  Shelby County Fiscal Court approves $1,000 contribution, to be coupled with funding from the City of Shelbyville, City of Simpsonville, and Triple S Planning and Zoning, to upgrade the GPS/GIS server currently housed in Planning and Zoning.

 

Shelby County Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger communicated to the fiscal court at Tuesday night’s meeting, “As more GPS information was obtained and downloaded into the system, the current server has reached its capacity.  It is necessary to upgrade the server to allow for an increased database of information.  This upgrade will prove to be beneficial to all government agencies.”

 

The total cost of the upgrade is $4,000.00.  Planning and Zoning will fund $2,000, Fiscal Court will contribute $1,000, and the City of Simpsonville and the City of Shelbyville will both contribute $500.

 

In 2007, the Shelby County Fiscal Court had applied for and was awarded the funding to purchase portable GPS equipment that is currently being stored and utilized by the Triple S Planning and Zoning staff, to gather and pinpoint information for the GIS system.
