[OGIC] Revised OGIC draft legislative recommendation for review

[John Waffenschmidt]

I am concerned with the language relating to Regional Capacity Building.
While some local governments or special districts may choose a regional
model for data creation/standardization/maintenance, many will not.  For
those that would use a regional model, their need is not necessarily
created by the entity's size, but rather by existing capacities and
priorities.  I would prefer that the language emphasize that the regional
model is simply an option that some entities may embrace.

I also would eliminate the map of proposed regions.  Many entities have
strong reasons why they may prefer partnering with others in combinations
not represented on the map.  This partnering should be accomplished through
a ground up approach.  I believe the map of proposed regions has the
potential to create more dissent than agreement.

Thanks to everyone who has worked diligently on this,

Sincerely,
John
