It’s the start of the New Year and the start of a new budget planning process for many public agencies.

And this is only part of the story. The improved communication, increased level of citizen trust, and ability to support better decision making and resource allocation are benefits that pay huge dividends in other ways.

New Clients
As I’ve noted in previous months’ newsletters, one of the values that all of our customers share in is the strength of the network and knowledge of hundreds of other Comcate clients across the country.
We recently welcomed the following clients to the Comcate family:
City of Coachella, CA – Utilizing Comcate’s Abandoned Vehicle Manager (AVM) to track and manage abatement.
City of Danville, KY – Public Notification- Using Comcate’s Code Enforcement Manager (CEM) and our public notification system to comply with KY HB422.
