Jefferson County Clerk's Office Receives Statewide Recognition for IT Innovation
The Jefferson County Clerk's Office is proud to announce that it has received the Best IT Collaboration Among Organizations award from Government Technology. This honor recognizes the successful launch of the Sixty-Year Project, a transformative initiative aimed at digitizing and streamlining access to decades of land records.
The Sixty Year Project was developed in response to House Bill 1, which mandates that all counties digitize land records dating back to 1966. To meet this requirement and better serve the public, the Clerk's Office partnered with ArcaSearch, a trusted name in digital archiving, to develop a robust, user-friendly tool that allows individuals to search for land records quickly and efficiently.
“This award from Government Technology recognizes not only technical innovation but also the power of collaboration between government entities and private partners to deliver meaningful public service improvements,” said Bobbie Holsclaw, Jefferson County Clerk.
The project is scheduled for completion by the end of September 2025. At this point, residents and researchers alike will benefit from a comprehensive, searchable database of over six decades of land records. The Jefferson County Clerk's Office team accepted this award at the KY Digital Government Summit on June 10.
