Body
BACKGROUND
The Department of Code Compliance Neighborhood Code division is interested in implementing an electronic citation system (eCitations), via the use of a hand-held device. The device is currently used by the Dallas Police Department and is serviced by Brazos-Tyler Technologies. The Code Compliance Neighborhood Code division user is able to enter citation data into the electronic citation system for a specific citation type. Then the electronic citation system produces the designated citation, from a mobile printer, based on the citation type selected. The electronic citation system will increase efficiency, minimize data entry errors, and ensure sensitive citation data is secure during the collection, storage, and court transfer processes.
Key Benefits:
• Minimize data entry errors.
• Ensure sensitive citation data is secure.
• Entering data via handheld device.
