Springfield Residents Can Send Service Requests With a Click of a Mouse
The township government has sponsored an innovative program where Springfielders can send a request via email, and have it routed to the right agency.
Springfield has come up with a novel approach to making sure that the needs of residents are known and met.
The township just launched a new Citizen Service Request management system. Citizens expect a certain level of services and this new method is an easy on-line way of letting the town know of service request needs.
The web-based software tool is intended to allow township officials to better manage service requests, increasing efficiency and shortening response time. Township officials said in a statement that they will be able to quickly accept service requests and route them directly to the department responsible for resolving the issue.
