City workers like Jeff want to see San José’s workforce thrive. When employees leave for other agencies, the city loses valuable skills and experience. A fair contract is key to retaining skilled workers and maintaining services San José residents rely on.

“internal data showed that building + fire permits were, in fact, taking longer to issue than before the OpenGov system launched. Previously, around 70% of fire permits were issued in two days, compared with just 3% in May under OpenGov. For building permits, the share fell from roughly 60% to 36%.”

sfstandard.com

Lurie’s OpenGov permit software was ‘exceeding’ its goals. City data said otherwise

San Francisco’s permit chief said the new OpenGov system was “exceeding” its targets. So why did the city’s own data show building and fire permits taking longer than before?

Say NO to a 5-year giveaway! Permits that were previously issued over the counter the same day can take 7–10 days through OpenGov. In effect, City taxpayers are funding OpenGov’s ongoing product development while service delivery has declined.
