City Launches New Program, Saving Taxpayers Substantial Time and Money
Web-based plan management tool is key addition to City’s sustainability programs
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH – Today Mayor Ralph Becker announced Salt Lake City will begin using a new collaborative submission, review and tracking program to streamline development services and interdepartmental communication. ProjectDox® ePlan submission, a program developed by Avolve Software, will enable Salt Lake City to offer online plan submission and review for developers, architects, contractors and residents, eliminating the need to travel to City offices with paper plans for submittal.
By moving plan submission and review online, paper consumption, printing costs, greenhouse gas emissions, drive time and phone-based inquiries to city personnel will be greatly reduced or eliminated for each permit application.
“Paper-based plan submission and review is a resource-intensive process that has basically been done the same way for over a century,” said Salt Lake City Building Services Director, Orion Goff. “ProjectDox makes it possible for us to offer cutting edge technology to our residents while adhering to the City’s sustainability initiatives”. “This technology is going to make a lot of our customers very happy,” added Frank Gray, Salt Lake City Director of Community and Economic Development.
