Please see this post for more updated info.  ESRI now offers a Small Municipal and County Government Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) Program that allows unlimited deployments of ESRI ArcGIS software to municipalities and counties in the United States. The program provides access to the geographic information system (GIS) technology small governments need with a straightforward, tiered pricing schedule.

The ELA Program is open to all governments in the United States with populations of 100,000 or less. Benefits to these organizations include

• Updated versions of GIS software to provide a consistent platform
• Flexible deployments to desktops, servers, and mobile devices
• Opportunities to consolidate GIS and IT initiatives, establish internal standards, and integrate ESRI business partner solutions
• Ability to incorporate GIS into mission-critical applications and workflows

The core technology for the ELA is ESRI’s ArcGIS software, which is an open and interoperable technology platform that provides advanced visualization and cartographic capabilities, spatial analysis, geographic data management, and more. ArcGIS software is a complete system to author, serve, and use geographic information. The technology gets geographic information to those who need it, including analysts, decision makers, field staff, and the public, through its support of mobile, Web, and desktop clients.
