New Jersey's Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission Selects CityView

Municipal Software Corporation, a leading developer of local government business process automation software, announced today that the Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission of New Jersey has selected Municipal Software's CityView software to replace their in-house developed approval tracking system. The total contract value is $102,000(US) and implementation of the new system is expected to begin immediately.

CityView provides municipal administrators and managers with a scalable and reliable technology solution for increasing local and municipal government productivity and servicing the needs of citizens and businesses throughout North America.

The Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission (HMDC) is an approval agency that encompasses 14 municipalities with a total population of approximately 414,000. The Commission has committed to replacing the various in-house tracking systems it has developed with the more streamlined and efficient CityView product. The newly aligned system will allow for the central review and approval of a number of various permitting groups including zoning, land use and construction departments. The CityView implementation also includes on-site training for city employees, as well as data conversion and integration services.

Rob Bennett, President of Municipal Software commented, "This is an important and significant sale to the Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission. The Commission was determined to align its data, review and approval processes into a single, unified and more efficient system. Now with CityView , duplication is eliminated, information can flow freely, and support is minimized."

The HMDC contract demonstrates the flexibility and versatility of the CityView suite of products. Data from the various in-house tracking systems can be quickly imported for set-up, and HMDC staff can easily modify CityView for complete customization.
