Smithville to add online employment and business-license forms; staff aim for October readiness
Summary
Staff demonstrated online employment applications with required fields and said the site will support utility-billing and business-license forms; the board asked whether business-license renewals will be ready by October and staff indicated it should be possible.
Gina showed how the new site will host online forms, including an employment application that requires certain fields and attachments before submission. She said the forms will reduce administrative follow-up because required fields will prevent incomplete submissions: "they can't actually submit anything without answering all of this," she said.
The board asked whether business-license renewals will be available online in time for the October renewal cycle. Gina said the system supports such forms and indicated it is feasible to have business-license renewal online for the next renewal period, though staff did not provide a firm, written commitment during the work session. Implementation will be part of the post-launch forms rollout and staff training.
