The board also received a presentation from Daryl Blowes, founder of IQM2, a Long Island-based company that automates the public meeting process with software that can build the district’s meeting agendas, record minutes and archive all public records, cutting down on paper and printing costs for the district.
Currently, board members are mailed printed packets of information for upcoming meetings, agendas and policies that IQM2 could eliminate. The system would cost the district $15,000 each year, but if purchased through BOCES, the price would be half. There was no vote at the meeting.
