Hello Barbara!
We have been just printing out the emails from Rebekah saying that the contract is fine, and the
Commissioners have been good with that as the "sign off" from PAO, but if you'd prefer signing
something, I can do that, too.
Our office is working on switching the Consent process to a fully digital format using Laserfiche
Forms. The goal is to be switched to digital signatures in the near future (maybe February!). Not
sure if that is something that you/Rebekah/Kevin want to discuss with the Commissioners, but
we're on it! We've been working with TS to get everyone the LF access needed for the forms.
Thanks!

Looks great to me.
Caitlin - you are welcome to either send a hard copy to my office with the BOCC cover sheet for me
to sign and I can then send it back to the BOCC office, or since you are already down there I can
run down when you let me know it's ready for signature (seems silly to send it from and then back
to the same place).
(I asked Kevin about digital signatures again and it sounds like he may run it past the BOCC so
hopefully in the future we can save the running in circles for signatures, TBD).
Thank you,
