SANTA CRUZ >> Residents in Santa Cruz County will have a new way to report potholes, trash and other quality-of-life problems to local officials – and see how fast they get fixed.
County leaders are set to launch a new free mobile application called Citizen Connect on Tuesday, which will allow people to directly alert the relevant municipal department of their concerns.
When users find graffiti, standing water or abandoned vehicles, for example, they can take and upload a photo to the app and write up a description of the problem and then monitor the progress through emailed updates. They can also see the most reported issues by list or on maps and comment on what others have reported.
