Description

GovtPermits is a no-cost, web-based system designed for building departments in municipalities, enabling residents to submit their building permit applications, make payments, and monitor their application statuses completely online. This system provides staff with a unified review queue that replaces cumbersome paper files and shared email accounts. Additionally, residents are given the ability to create self-service accounts where they can save drafts, view the status of their applications, and pay any extra fees—all conveniently organized under their email addresses. For the staff, the platform offers features to filter applications, update their statuses (which sends automatic notifications to applicants), and allows for customization of branding and fee structures. Remarkably, this solution comes at no cost to the departments, eliminating the need for software licenses or per-user fees, with cities having the discretion to decide whether to pass the flat application fee onto residents. Ultimately, this innovative platform streamlines the permitting process for both residents and city officials, enhancing efficiency and accessibility.
