Anatolijs,      You should try to engage some high school students or boy scouts. It doesn't take much time to get some novices up to speed on digitizing from air photos. Bernie.

Let me tag onto Denis' suggestion to manually add the data. If you can get people interested in OSM but sponsoring the update, then you'll have people that will keep it current. For a town of 8,100 people, it would only take a small handful to make a huge difference. And OSM is easy enough for the

Treasury Board put a fair bit of effort into an Open Data licence. The City of Ottawa has adopted it with some minor changes. At the municipal level the license has been approved by OpenStreetMap's legal working group. I would suggest step one would be to have your data formally approved with th
