County staff and vendor demonstrate Open Counter permitting platform; decision deferred for further review
Summary
Justin Dyszelski, with a colleague and Public Works staff, demonstrated the Open Counter platform for planning permitting, highlighting features that could streamline permitting and reduce staff workload; the Board deferred procurement and asked for further review.
Justin Dyszelski, along with a colleague identified only as Clint and Jeremy Morris of Public Works, reviewed the Open Counter platform for the Planning Department. The presenters outlined the platform’s features, the procurement process and the potential for the software to streamline permitting, reduce staff workload and improve the applicant experience.
Presenters said the county would need to complete procurement steps and further internal review before a decision. The Board did not take formal action on procurement during the work session and asked staff to continue evaluating the platform and return with recommendations and any fiscal implications.
No contract awards or formal votes were recorded in the work session minutes; the item was presented as a demonstration and discussion of next steps for county staff.
