To the Editor
Two weeks ago, lightning struck the Grafton County Administration Building.
A shared server room inside of the Registry of Deeds serves most other departments. Many operations suffered considerable damage and ceased to function. This building houses the IT Department, Finance, Administration, Human Resources, Extension, Conservation, Maintenance, offices of the County Attorney and the computerized mechanisms for the farm.
The Registry of Deeds was completely unaffected. When I was first elected and took assessment, I immediately began shifting away from reliance on Grafton IT. Our systems, our servers, our digital data base of well over five million images representing all interest and ownership of all property of Grafton County back to 1774 is all in the hands of the finest land records software vendor in the country, Fidlar Technologies of Davenport, Iowa.
Our annual contract brings sixty of the best minds in the business. They are innovators in product design and are committed to the highest levels of cybersecurity. Our offsite digital storage contract brings with it an insurance policy of five million dollars should we experience any cyber incident. I have added additional layers of security for back-up including two brand new copies of microfilm of the entire database. All images are available online on multiple platforms depending on need at our website at NHdeeds.org.
I am a consumer protection advocate and Fidlar offers a free and secure Property Fraud Alert system.
I have served in the role for 14 years and believe that I bring my acute business sense and commitment to helping people find the answers that they are seeking. There are changes coming with the talk of the new courthouse. I have spent years seeking a comprehensive master plan for the county complex. My efforts have been met with resistance, disrespect and hostility. I stepped up to the role to make a difference and I still have work to do. I would appreciate the honor of your vote on September 10, 2024.
