VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 04/03/2007 -- Municipal Software (
Collier County's CDES division is responsible for developing, enhancing and preserving the communities in its jurisdiction. With CityView, the division's seven departments will be able to better manage work processes and more efficiently process land use applications and building permits. Constituents will also directly benefit from new functionality - such as detailed application tracking through the review and issuance process - that will enable them to obtain a status report on their application at any time. And through the CityView Public Portal, constituents will have direct access to community development information and services, including an online complaint filing system.
"We conducted an extensive search for a software vendor with a proven track record of successful implementations and one that will ensure we have the services available to meet our growing community's needs," said Joe Schmitt, Administrator, Collier County CDES division. "We are confident that CityView PreBuilts will save us time and money while providing our citizens with greatly improved services."
Collier County is the second-fastest-growing area in North America based on full-time resident population. Between 1990 and 2000, the population increased by 65%, and the County estimates that the population grew by a further 27% from 2000 to 2006. Collier County is conservatively predicting a 19% population growth between 2006 and 2010.
"We are pleased to build on our successes in Florida and welcome another client in the region," stated Iain McLean, CEO of Municipal Software. "This will be one of our larger CityView projects, but the reasons the County bought from us are the same: we offer a proven solution for growing communities that integrates across departments and is flexible enough to allow the system to grow as the County grows."
