91F/10 H~ll County receives about $200,000.00 in reimbursement payments. In order for the State to continue receiving funding from the Federal government it must have a certain number of counties up and running by October 1, 1997. Part of the conversion has to be done on a 3-day weekend and there are only two weekends that this could be accomplished on. The data will need to be keyed in and Mr. Wusk explained the need to hire additional temporary help to accomplish this. Stelk questioned if it would be possible to interface information from the current system to the new system. Mr Wusk stated that this would not be cost effective. The data entry can be successfully accomplished by tempor~college students or part-time people. Linda Zimmerman mentioned problems that Merrick County has with this new system. John Cariotto stated that he was not aware that Merrick County had contacted the State concerning these problems and he encouraged Hall County to visit some of the sites and see how it works. John explained that everyone will receive full training and they are always available to help with any problems.
