Regional Partnering The Regional Partnering Group is still focused on the development and implementation of the SmartGov permit tracking and workflow system. While Spokane County and the City will have separate systems, staff is evaluating forms and processes to determine if forms can have a uniform appearance and if some processes, at least at the customer interface, can be more similar. In particular application forms for proposed use in Spokane, Spokane County and Spokane Valley are being discussed. The draft forms are simpler and less intimidating and intended for use with a new process for taking in applications. The three jurisdictions are also discussing details for language related to application expiration. Permit expiration is also being discussed but with recent code amendments already made in Spokane and Spokane County it is unlikely the permit expiration language will be re-addressed in the short term in those jurisdictions. Sign and Landscaping Regulations Staff continued to work on signage and landscaping regulations to present to the Planning Commission and City Council. Cote Compliance Citizen Action Requests Code Compliance Officers responded to 31 Citizen Action Requests. They are by type, listed below.
