The question of how much contact information for elected and appointed officials should be posted on Bartholomew County’s website will be discussed next month by a 10-member committee.
Input from department heads and the public will likely be sought by the Computer and Data Processing Board, said Bartholomew County Information Technology director and board member Scott Mayes.
Often referred to as the “Data Board,” the group will discuss contact information on the website at 8:30 a.m. May 13 in the fourth floor council chambers in the Bartholomew County Government Office Building at Third and Franklin streets, Mayes said.
It’s likely board members will be asked to form a committee to collect thoughts and concerns of elected officials and the public on website content changes, Mayes said.
In March, county officials were surprised to learn that some telephone numbers and county-assigned email addresses were removed from two links available to the public through the home page of the county’s website.
Bartholomew County Auditor Pia O’Connor, who took office on Jan. 1, said the removals were made at her request.
