<br />extension. The preferred naming convention for Cass County would be <br />www.casscountynd.gov. <br /> <br />The main reasons for the change is to better represent Cass County <br />as a government agency and to assist in the implementation of secure web <br />applications. By standardizing website addressing this would reduce the <br />cost required to maintain security for two website addresses. <br /> <br />The cost to register the .gov address is $ 125/year and can be <br />covered with the current IT budget. <br /> <br />The second part of the request is standardization of email addresses <br />using LastNameFirstInitial@casscountynd.gov as a new addressing <br />format. <br /> <br />With the changes proposed, departments would not have to reprint <br />letterheads, business cards and other correspondence, but rather exhaust <br />any existing stock and any new orders would be printed with the new <br />addresses. Existing website and email addresses will be forwarded to the <br />new formats. <br /> <br />Cass County Department Heads have reviewed my request and <br />recommended the changes to the Commission. <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION: <br />Move to adopt the official County website address as <br />www.casscountvnd.gov and authorize the Information Technology to <br />implement required changes to the County web site and email systems to <br />reflect the new address. <br /> <br />Terry Schmaltz <br />IT Manager <br />Cass County Government <br />
