Friends,

Moving Pillsbury Forward is glad to see the new City of Springfield Dashboard for tracking cited properties throughout the city. As a part of the overall Pillsbury Project, we are striving to improve the entire Pillsbury Neighborhood. We work regularly with City of Springfield personnel (Neighborhood Police Officers, Housing Inspectors, Zone Managers, Public Works Crews, etc.) to ensure that the neighborhood is cared for and maintained at a reasonable level.
The new Cited Properties dashboard allows us to track (visually) the areas of concern within the neighborhood through the City of Springfield website:

Also included is a second dashboard for tracking Unsafe & Dangerous Buildings:

Functionally, this new level of public information access allows us to see the status of reported issues as they are prioritized for getting addressed. Ideally, this allows for city workers to spend less time answering public questions related to tracking and more time in solving issues related to quality of life in neighborhoods. We see this as a big step forward in public services efficiency. Thank you, City of Springfield, for this tremendous improvement!
Thank you for being a part of this important community project.
