Thanks to Susan Miller – State GIO - statewide Google imagery at 6 inch resolution is freely available for government entities for not-for-profit use for the next two years.  Most of the region was flown this year – as late as April so although quite current can be a little leafy - with the exception of a small band in December of last year.  
The image service is available through October when a self-registration system will be implemented for free access.  Details to follow once available. 
To access imagery:
Add this WMTS service in ArcCatalog/ ArcMap: (instructions attached)
