Merchant Services: nothing new Catalis: -Tax Sale Bidder Info/Subs Payment updates – no update -ADA requirements – Catalis is working on but no further updates. Linda is waiting for 5 counties to respond to our request for information for the new web homepages. - Deposits- the email from FNBO alerting to a file failure went to Marc Carr and Chris Sampson who no longer are with Catalis. The echeck file failed due to a foreign symbol in the file. It was fixed, but caused one days’ deposits to have to be manually sent by Linda. FNBO has changed their contact email to a distribution list to ensure the proper personnel are informed. Linda met with Renee & Steve from Catalis to discuss frustrations. Catalis has hired a development tech geared to the GovTech side of Catalis. DOT Modernization updates: no updates – Ted was attending a meeting with DOT. Ted had one update regarding a new bill being introduced into the legislature requiring treasurers to accept partial and future payments. Currently, our system allows a treasurer to have the option online to collect these. Linda will get a list of those counties not accepting partials or futures. RFP Counsel-Drake Law Clinic: ISAC’s Kristi Harshbarger suggested we utilize a law intern from Drake University to assist with our RFP. All intern work is also reviewed by their supervisors. Nicholas DeAngelo will meet with us for introductions and we will get him the RFP we reviewed with Eric. Web Policy – ITAT reps, new members: we need to replace Sandy from ITAT who retired.
