Community Development Department
Permit Tracking Software $250K. Workflow, Field Connectivity, support
line. Department handls 1200 building permits per year, $1.7M in bldg
permit revenue per year. More than 3000 permits in the entire
department. Recreation would not fall under this software.
Presently, the departments each have their own db's (e.g. Access) w/
no interplay or coordination.
This would allow remote access (e.g. online application, in-field
access (via a Palm Pilot).
They'd use existing hardware and they assume that the hardware
required is cheap.
Committee raises issues with software capitalization.
Benefit: check status of permits, schedule status, information
sharing, unified permit process for multi-permit jobs.
SS: Would be nice to have coordination w/ Historic Commission
registry.
This might be a 3 year project.
RB: Leasing the software might be more interesting.
BH: will people realize the value if we do this as a fee increase?
What's the plan for the MIS Director replacement?
RB: Software would have to be running before a fee increase could be
legitimately imposed.
Questions for Rob:
Would it be a single license or multiple licenses for each department?
What is the plan to fill the MIS Director position?
Would a fee increase be acceptable?
Is leasing an option?
Does a three-year migration imply a project manager?
Are new headcount implied?
Is SW capital?
Adjourn: 9:00am
