Planning staff to implement Madison AI platform as part of digital modernization
Summary
Planning & Zoning staff briefed the Board on 52 building permits issued in May and plans to implement the Madison AI software platform to support department workflows and customization; an intern has been hired to assist with technology projects.
Milton Ollerton told the Board that Planning & Zoning issued 52 building permits in May and is moving forward with implementation planning for the Madison AI software platform.
Ollerton said staff have met with Madison AI about implementation and customization options and that an intern has been hired to assist with technology-related projects. He also noted that despite a slight year-over-year dip in permit counts, the department remains in a strong financial position.
Why it matters: modernizing permitting systems and exploring AI-enabled tools could speed review times and improve data accuracy for building and land-use applications, but will require planning, customization and oversight.
Next steps: Planning staff will continue implementation planning and report back on timelines, costs and cybersecurity considerations.
