Councilmember Sean Wilkinson reviewed findings from meetings with staff about public-works and planning processes and identified redundant engineering and land-use reviews as a major inefficiency. He recommended centralized online submission and automated notifications so reviews would not rely on individually maintained spreadsheets and personal tracking.
Wilkinson also recommended recording Development Review Committee (DRC) meetings and producing minutes to reduce dispute risk and improve accountability. Leadership directed staff to develop software options and staffing models; Andrea Steiniger and Johnny Ferry were tasked with identifying suitable tools.
