IT-Board of Assessors Letter of Agreement
Department:Information Technology
Caption:Approve Letter of Agreement between Augusta Information
Technology and the Richmond County Board of Assessors.
Background:The Board of Assessors (BOA) desires to utilize a 3rd party vendor to
supply BOA staff and the public with tools related to parcel search,
assessment, and sales information. The Information Technology
Department and Board of Assessors are establishing a formal Letter
of Agreement (LOA) that will govern web site presentation and
searching, 3rd party vendor coordination, and data transfer within the
departments.
Analysis:The LOA provides the BOA with the freedom to establish the
relationship with the 3rd-party vendor, yet makes clear that IT still
provides the official city website and GIS search presence.
Financial Impact:No funding is required to implement this letter of agreement.
Alternatives:N/A

TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT LETTER OF AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
THE AUGUSTA, GA INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT (IT)
AND THE
RICHMOND COUNTY BOARD OF ASSESSORS (BOA)
This Letter of Agreement (LOA) is entered into by and between the Richmond County Board of
Assessors (BOA) – sometimes referred to as the Tax Assessor’s Office (TAO) - and the Augusta
Information Technology Department (IT) in order to establish parameters for the relationship between the
parties specifically for Internet, Intranet, Geographic Information System (GIS) and mapping-related
activities. This program will provide a framework for cooperation between the departments, assign
responsibilities for technology-related activities, and define the administrative roles for the departments
where the maintenance of existing technology and the implementation of new technology are concerned.
1. BACKGROUD
Information Technology has worked with past Chief Appraisers and staff in order to provide
technology improvements for the BOA, including parcel editing, GIS data layer maintenance, and an
online parcel search utilized by City Departments and the public. This Letter of Agreement (LOA)
formalizes the relationship between IT and the BOA so that the responsibilities of all the parties are
clear.
2. GUIDIG PRICIPLES
2.1. Except where indicated in this document, the relationship between Augusta IT and the BOA
shall be governed by the Augusta Information Technology Acceptable Use Policy. Provisions in
this LOA shall supersede provisions in the Acceptable Use Policy only for the BOA and only
under the conditions described herein.
2.2. IT is the keeper of the city's technology infrastructure and as such is entitled and required to
make policies and institute procedures intended to protect the integrity of that infrastructure.
2.3. IT is the city's provider of technology-related products and services such as Internet, Intranet,
servers, email, telephony, data backup and restore, software, wireless communications, and
desktop equipment such as printers, monitors, scanners, etc.
2.4. The BOA provides and defends uniform fair market values on all taxable properties in Richmond
County to establish an equitable digest for the State and to provide to the Augusta Commission,
the Board of Education, and the Tax Commissioner, information to levy and collect property
taxes. As such, the BOA requires dependable and progressive technology that will facilitiate this
mission.
2.5. As responsible stewards of public funds, BOA and IT are committed to implementing and
managing optimal technology in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.
2.6. Neither party to this agreement shall take any action in the course of operations that will
endanger the integrity of Augusta's computer network or data stored therein. Both parties agree
to communicate extensively with each other to ensure that understanding and cooperation are
maintained at the highest level.
2.7. BOA agrees to involve IT in any negotiations or discussion with vendors of hardware or
software that is intended for use on any computer device that is hosted on Augusta’s computer

2.8. IT will supply BOA with in-house technical support for GIS, MS Office Products, PC and
peripheral hardware, CAMA and related software support, and network connectivity. IT will
also diagnose software problems, including Pictometry-related troubleshooting. If the problem
requires additional troubleshooting support IT will open a work order with the application
support team for the respective software and work with them to resolve issues. IT response time
will be dependent on the external support of software vendors.
2.9. Based on the provisions in this section and the sections to follow, IT retains right of refusal to
install, implement, support, maintain, or link to various products and/or services that are
obtained through means external to IT and without IT sanction.
3. ITERET PRESECE

available at the convenience of the BOA to make modifications to the page(s), create
forms as requested, make forms and documents available for download, issue and

depending on new BOA initiatives or State of Georgia requirements.
3.2. Online Parcel Search
3.2.1. IT will continue to provide Augusta’s official parcel search website both internally for
Augusta Departments and externally for the public. IT will coordinate with BOA and

3.2.2. Should BOA contract with a third party to provide parcel and other BOA data search

according to IT’s schedule shall be funded by the BOA. Storage shall be located on a device
within IT’s citywide network.
6. PROPERTY OWERSHIP RECORDS MAAGEMET
6.1. Due to advances in technology, exposure to the public via website, and the interconnecting of

important asset for users of information both internally and externally; therefore, BOA staff will
seek to enter transfers of ownership within one month of the date on which the transfer is
recorded, with consideration granted for staffing and workload issues. BOA will work with IT

digest.

necessary to discuss the status of this relationship.
9. DURATIO

of both parties and shall remain in force until amended, terminated, replaced by mutual agreement, or
until superseded by executive or Commission action.
