Title
Authorizing the Mayor to enter into an amended agreement for implementation of Cityworks PLL software and other integration software programs and services to include Plan Commission; authorizing the appropriation and expenditure of $5,000 from the Capital Improvement Fund; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
Ordinance 367-20 authorized the expenditure of funds for the implementation of Cityworks PLL (Permits Land and Licensing) and associated software and integration. The City owns an enterprise license of Cityworks and there is no cost for licensing. The cost is for the build out of Cityworks for the department of Building Inspections to replace the antiquated software, Accela, that they are currently using for building permits. The Cityworks software resides on the GIS platform and has the ability to track service requests, work orders, storeroom, licenses, and inspections, which relate to assets and service requests throughout the city. The software was used by DPU originally, but has grown to include a majority of city divisions and is also tied to SeeClickFix. Adding Plan Commission into this platform with allow greater collaboration and communication between City Departments. This implementation project was competitively bid in accordance with Toledo Municipal Code Chapter 187. This additional $5,000 allows us to include the Toledo-Lucas County Plan Commission in Building Inspection related workflows.
