IT Department wins 2024 Government Experience Award
Hamilton County has been recognized by the Center for Digital Government at its 2024 Government Experience Awards. The Information Systems Services (ISS) Department tied for fifth place in the Overall County Government Experience category for its work on the county’s Parks Finder program.
Developed by Hamilton County’s GIS/ISS Department with input from various parks departments and support from Cultivate Geospatial Solutions, the Parks Finder site allows residents to easily access information about city and county parks, including amenities like playgrounds, shelters, and tennis courts.
Chris Mertens, Hamilton County’s Director of Information Technology, said, “This award is quite an honor, but it belongs to more than just the IT department. This project was an amazing collaboration between the county, the cities, the towns, and their parks’ departments. And having a single source for park information its ultimately a big win for the entire community.”
