Introduction to Citizen Problem Reporter

Citizen Problem Reporter can be used to solicit non-emergency requests (for example, blight, graffiti, trash, potholes, clogged drains, and flooding) from the general public.

It provides 24/7 access to an organization and the location-enabled requests helps efficiently triage requests to the correct person or department responsible for its resolution. This accelerated approach improves the quality of life in a community and reduces long-term asset maintenance costs. Citizen Problem Reporter is typically implemented by planning departments, public works agencies, utilities, and other local government organizations that want to take a data-driven approach to asset maintenance or code enforcement.

The Citizen Problem Reporter solution delivers a set of capabilities that help you solicit requests from the public, manage the response to each request, solicit feedback from the public after addressing a request, and monitor the resolution of non-emergency requests in a community.
