owners in the City will be able to look up current tax and
assessing information for property in the City of
Northville. The objectives in making tax and assessing
information available are:

- Ensure that the data is kept up-to-date and accurate.
- Maintain the site's look-and-feel in the displaying of
the data.
- Not compromise the integrity of the internal
assessment and tax rolls.
Property owner names will not be included in the data to
ensure privacy. Personal property will not be included

Parking Ticket Payment:
Scheduled for 10/03 |
Residents or
visitors to Downtown Northville who receive a parking ticket
will be able to look up those tickets and pay fines from the
City website. The objectives in allowing parking
tickets to be paid from the City website are:
- Allow those ticketed to be able to pay fines at their
convenience without having to drive to the city or mail
the payment in.
- Decrease the number of unpaid fines.
- Maintain the site's look-and-feel in the displaying of
the data.
- Not compromise the integrity of the internal parking
ticket data.

Business License
Applications/ Renewals:
Awaiting internal software upgrades |
The City processes
approximately 20-30 new business license applications per
year and about 400 renewals. The initial application
process will continue to require a visit to City Hall.
This helps to foster a relationship between new business
owners and the City. However, the annual renewals of
the license can be automated via the Internet.
Currently there is no software for tracking Business
Licenses. The City will seek out such software at the
appropriate time. Once this software is identified,
the process for performing renewals via the Internet will be
investigated further. |
Dog Licenses:
Not considering web-enabling this service |
Dog owners are
required to license their four-legged friends annually.
Because a vet's signature (verifying rabies shots have been
administered) is required, this process does not lend itself
well to further automation on the Internet. |
Miscellaneous Publications:
Under consideration |
The Clerk's office
sells a variety of publications to the public including
street and zoning maps, zoning ordinance books and
historical design standards. Currently a downloadable
form is available on the website. Selling these
publications from the website will provide a more convenient
way for residents to purchase them. Fulfillment of the
products will still need to be performed. |
Property Tax Bills:
Under Consideration |
|
Utility Bill Payment:
Under consideration |
Utility bill
information will be made available on the website.
Businesses and residents will be able to log in, look up
their water bill information and make a payment on the bill.

(internal use only). |
Online Permitting:

allow residents, businesses and trades people to be able to
apply and pay for various permits via the City website and
to receive their permits via email. |
Property Tax Payment:

Parks and Recreation Online
Registration :
Future Consideration |
Plante-Moran is
currently analyzing options for upgrading the City's Parks
and Recreation software. . |
Miscellaneous Interactions:
Not appropriate for Internet |
The following
processes are deemed to not be appropriate for web
interaction either because there are too few transactions
per year to justify the cost or a presence at City Hall is
required:
- Sidewalk Cafe
- Solicitor/Peddler Permit
- Massage Permit
- Passports
