SUMMARY OF KEY FUNDING/SERVICE ISSUES:
The Capital Outlay line item represents a replacement vehicle. This vehicle is used by our appraisers for revaluation and to pick up new construction.
We will continue to physically inspect 1/6 of the County and statistically update the rest. We will be in Area #6, City of Port Townsend.
In 2019, we will continue to learn and improve the usage of iPads in the appraisal field.
There is an Annual Maintenance Fee with True Automation that will be broken down into quarterly payments.
