City Of Gainesville, FL Goes Live on Innoprise’s Planning and Zoning Software

BROOMFIELD, CO - January 22, 2009. The City of Gainesville, Florida has deployed Innoprise Software, Inc.’s Planning and Zoning module. Gainesville also purchased Innoprise Codes Enforcement, Permitting, Inspections, along with Internet enabling, Citizen Access. Gainesville has a population of 122,000 and serves as the cultural, educational and commercial center for the North Central Florida Region.

The City provides a full range of municipal services, including police and fire protection; land use planning and zoning services; code enforcement, streets and drainage construction and maintenance; refuse and recycling services through a franchised operator to name a few. In 2008 Gainesville ranked 22 on Forbes.com's list of "America's Smartest Cities" and Gainesville Ranks #1 in Cities Ranked and Rated book in 2007 that studied more than 400 metropolitan areas in the U.S. and Canada.

The City of Gainesville desired replacements to their existing database application to improve internal access to information, embrace the Internet, and offer wireless access to staff from the field. The Planning department did not have electronic plan management system. The Building and Code enforcement areas were using their own legacy systems that do not communicate with each other. Gainesville sought a solution that would provide a seamless management system and tool for all of these related operational areas.

“The Innoprise Planning and Zoning provides Gainesville with new functionality and the ability to maintain a historical archive,” said Erik Bredfeldt, Director of Community Development. The Innoprise solution provides the ability for citizens to track the progress of projects and apply for land use and zoning applications via web, integrate with the existing cashiering system and process on-line credit card payments. Gainesville will be bringing the remaining Community Development modules live in the next coming months.
