Bonita Springs to migrate servers to cloud, launch online event permitting in coming months
Summary
City staff told council they plan a website redesign, cloud migration this summer, ongoing cybersecurity training and an online event-permitting system expected to go live in about two months to streamline organizer interactions.
City staff told a Bonita Springs workshop that information-technology updates are underway to support growing event demand and municipal services.
Laura Teller said the city is soliciting proposals for a website redesign and plans to migrate on-premise servers to cloud hosting this summer. Staff continue annual cybersecurity training and are implementing fleet-management projects. Teller said staff are working to bring online event permitting so organizers can apply electronically rather than in person and that the permitting portal is expected to be live in roughly two months.
Why it matters: A cloud migration and online permitting are intended to reduce administrative friction for organizers and make municipal processes easier to track. Council members and staff discussed using merchant and sales-tax data (by ZIP or other measures) to quantify economic impacts from events and to support fee policy decisions.
No formal action was taken; staff will return with procurement details and timelines.
