Summary

Members asked a subject-matter expert to prepare a scope for a GIS mapping project and agreed to schedule the major work in 2026 to preserve meeting bandwidth this year.

A member proposed that the board begin planning a geographic information systems (GIS) project to map burial sites and related data, and suggested asking Mark (a board subject-matter expert) to draft a scope and layout for the work. Members supported the idea of collecting a scope document and then deferring significant work until 2026 so the board could prioritize near-term event and documentation tasks for the remainder of this year.

Board members said they would request a preliminary scope from Mark to preview the technical needs and to decide who should be involved. The board discussed holding a working session with Mark and other volunteers to develop the project plan; no formal budget or timeline was adopted at this meeting and the item was marked for 2026 as a to-be-determined project.
