The Building Division's system will provide the City with the ability to automate permitting and inspection processes utilizing the technologies of today and tomorrow. Implementation is planned to start as soon as possible.

The City's planned use of CityView is unique in many ways and we look forward being able to show off more of CityView's versatility."
