May 5, 2009 Feature Covers the Code Enforcement Success of a Comcate Client
Apr 28,2009
Compton’s code enforcement officers are working to build this city of 93,000 residents into a model for working class cities. They have been closely reviewing and monitoring city neighborhoods to assign responsibility for urban decay in an effort to crack down on blight. Like many cities, Compton has a shortage of affordable housing so many citizens have converted their garages into living space. But often these spaces are unsafe and without proper fire exits. Compton has established a voluntary pilot project to bring housing up to code and issue appropriate permits to ensure safety. City citations for unmaintained property are helping to transform the city into a safer community. Compton’s Code Enforcement Officers use easy and affordable Comcate software to manage violations, attach supporting documentation, schedule follow-up visits and print activity reports and violation notices while in the field. The time that the officers save by not needing to return to the office lets them spend more time in the field and cover more territory. The software also ensures that cases are managed consistently to closure, resulting in improved compliance and collections. http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-compton-garages6-2009may06,0,7137858.story Comcate software saves staff time, saves agencies money, and improves customer service.
