*Information on Clear Gov already available on division local services website & DESE site for no additional direct cost impact. Already supported by way of state taxes.

*Recent budget presentations and justifications for staff raises, to take care of town website. As quick as link for clear gov was put in place (after it was pointed out it was not) link for DLS data analytics should be able to be linked to town web site.

*DLS data analytics contains same information as clear gov.

VADAR service, which town already has and pays for, except water dept.??? Has cloud service for secure data access anywhere (computer) finance reports, 5 clicks (schedule A).
