Web+Center customized for city building permit tracking

Web+Center User Jeff Cropper from Russellvile KY  has submitted this Web+Center inspirational customization.  We have created a Small Cities App page on our website where will be sharing the code customizations from Jeff and other Web+Center developers to aid in efforts to help other small city IT operations that wish to implement similar municipality information ticket tracking systems.


Web+Center for City Building Permit tracking and grease control

Article by Jeff Cropper,

One of the reasons I really love the Web+Center software is because I can modify screens to fit almost any situation where we need to store and search data.  So far we have created two additional, custom Web+Center systems outside of our Web+Center IT system.

The first is a permit tracking and search system for our building permits for the Building & Zoning department.  The screen shots below describe the basic interface used by the building inspectors for using a Web+Center ticket to describe a building permit with all of the various issues and states of the permit process.  We currently have not customized the Customer+Center interface for this applications for the end permit users.

Grease Control Permit:

The second is a Grease Control Permit system used by our Wastewater
department.  This is currently under development.

IT department Ticketing:

Our IT department uses another customized Web+Center for all IT ticketing.

Water meter work order System:
There are also plans for a fourth installation where I am going
to try and modify the asset section of the software to track and generate work orders for all of the water meters we have in our Water department. We’re still in the planning stage for this project.

Each of the custom systems require fairly substantial Web+Center code modifications. We are working with Internet Software Sciences to distribute these City Applications Suite and make them available to you.  Information about this small city permit application is available on their website at:
