DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

One of the steps of your project will be visiting the Development Services Building.

How to Start: Visit the Early Assistance Desk (EAD), where a Development Technician will verify your request for services, ask questions about your project, and issue a service ticket, that is specific to the customized services and order in which you will receive. Experienced customers familiar with the process may use the Self Serve Kiosk.

The Queue:
Once a ticket is created with services, it will be put into your first service queue. The ticket number assigned to you is determined by your first service.

Routing:
Once your first service is completed, your ticket is routed to the next service on the ticket. The ticket is then placed into the next department queue based on your entry time. This can shift tickets in that queue slightly when older tickets are given a higher priority.


Customer Flow Management
The Development Services Building is equipped with an Automatic Queuing System. The Early Assistance Desk Technicians will create a service ticket that is custom made for your project and service needs. The queuing system will allow you to relax in relative comfort in the lobby while your virtual ticket does the waiting in line for you. The Automatic Queuing System allows for a more managed customer flow.

Benefits:

  • More relaxed lobby environment
  • Tickets queued to services based on enter time
  • Managed multi-counter transitions
  • Multiple services can be “programmed” to the ticket for automatic routing

Project Management
The Department of Development Services is proud to provide a customer-centric, project-orientated approach to the application process. A Project Manager will be assigned to all commercial projects to help ensure that services are comprehensive and seamless from the customer perspective, from start to finish!
