ADJOURNMENT Page 1 of 33 Committee Item Memo Meeting Date: December 13, 2021 Staff Contact: Stevie Ferrari, Parks and Rec Director Department: Parks and Recreation Subject: Consideration of an Intergovernmental Agreement Between Riverside School District 96 and the Village of Brookfield to Share Facilities Background Information: The Village approached District 96 in early 2021 on the topic of sharing costs for crossing guards provided to Hollywood School. Currently, the Village hires, trains and pays 100% of the salaries to all crossing guards. The Village requested that District 96 consider an IGA similar to what we currently have with D103 and D95 that provides reciprocal shared service with facility access in lieu of paying for crossing guard training and salaries. In addition, District 96 currently splits these costs for the same services with the Village of Riverside. The District 96 Board directed the Superintendent to meet with Village staff to develop an IGA that would provide for the sharing of District facilities with the Village in lieu of paying for crossing guard services. After meeting with the Superintendent of District 96, staff identified facility usage items including: • Summer access of new multi-purpose space and gym at Hollywood Elementary that will allow the Village to house our newly implemented Kindergarten Enrichment day camp and K-1st day camp • School year access to Hollywood Elementary for recreation programming up to 3days a week when no other conflicts exist. In exchange for the above facility access, the Village will continue to hire, train, and pay for crossing guards provided to Hollywood Elementary School. Recommendation(s): Staff recommends Board approval for an Intergovernmental Agreement between Riverside School District 96 and The Village of Brookfield for facility access to Hollywood Elementary School beyond school hours to provide programming in exchange for crossing guard services in hiring, training and scheduling staff. Page 2 of 33 Committee Item Memo Meeting Date: December 13, 2021 Staff Contact: George Issakoo, Assistant Village Manager Department: Public Works Subject: Review of SeeClickFix Request Management Software Background Information: In the Village Board's Strategic Plan, the Board has prioritized the increased use of technology to improve operational efficiencies and customer service throughout Village operations. One of the most commonly used services are requests made to the Public Works Department. As presented to the Board previously(attached), the current process for these requests is cumbersome and obsolete, with the use of paper forms completed after phone or email requests are submitted. The Village Manager's Office partnered with the Public Works Department to evaluate options to digitize and improve this paper based workflow. As a result, staff has selected and begun to implement SeeClickFix, a request management software that will streamline the workflow of Public Works and vastly improve customer service and the experience of the public when engaging with the Village. Specifically, SeeClickFix is a platform with web and mobile capabilities which allows the public to submit and track requests sent to the Village for completion. The public will have the opportunity to submit the most common requests currently received by Public Works by downloading the SeeClickFix app and selecting Brookfield as their community. They can also submit via a web portal on the Village's website. Once submitted, the requests will be routed directly to the responsible division at Public Works. Submitters can receive notifications of request confirmation, status changes and specific comments made by the crew working on the requests. Additionally, Village staff can create requests for the public when calls are made, this ensures that every request made to public works is tracked digitally, creating a streamlined workflow and searchable database over time. Today, the Assistant Village Manager will provide a brief visual overview of the system, the way it will work internally and how the public can utilize the system.

First, there is a “Public Works Service Request” page on the Village website (Image 1) which allows for residents to submit information regarding their service request. When submitted, this form generates into an e-mail that is sent to the Public Works Department which is then printed and provided to the various departmental Foreman for completion by their respective crews. The second method is the completion of a paper form (Image 2) which is filled-out by the foreman and assigned to the respective crews. Both methods are cumbersome, inefficient and create document and record management liabilities. The current methods available to Public Works and other Village Departments effect the efficiency of day-to-day operations, create difficulties with tracking completed work and do not lend themselves to a customer service driven approach. Additionally, it is not conducive to the Village’s long-term goal of digitizing documents and increasing efficiency through the use of technology. As it pertains to operational inefficiency, the paper processes create duplicative work for data entry and record keeping for future reference. The request must first be submitted, reviewed by Department Administration, and eventually passed on to the Foreman. Sometimes the e-mail form is re-written onto a paper service request form so it is more easily filed. Then, the request gets completed and returned to Department Administration for filing. In order to search for historical records, staff must sift through the years of paper requests and hope to find an available record. Presumably, at some point in this process the resident should also get notified of the service request status. Ultimately, there are available service request solutions that solve the problems created by obsolete paper processes. The available solutions optimize workflow, minimize paper documentation, increase operational efficiency, and increase customer service. With a digital service request software, Village staff can deploy mobile and web applications that are created to allow customers to submit requests that are specifically pre- routed to the correct respondent. This service will be used across departments when phone calls and e-mail “help” requests are submitted to the Village as well. Those requests can be monitored by management and have embedded escalations that notify pre-selected individuals when certain items have not been completed in a timely fashion. The requests can then be responded to by teams in the field. There is no longer a need to print a form, fill-out the information and pass it on through the various steps. Additionally, these systems include automated messaging that notifies customers when a request has been submitted, received, and provide progress updates and completion status. A digital service request system increases operational efficiency by minimizing wasteful steps in the workflow. The requests are indexed and stored in a database that allows flexibility for staff to search via a variety of fields. It will reduce response time on document requests and allow for data driven approaches to service delivery. The available data will provide management the opportunity to evaluate the Department’s operation and allocate resources as needed (i.e. assessing where water mains break the most, what type of requests are most common etc.). Staff estimates that the licenses for a service tracking software will cost approximately $6,000 annually. It is Page 7 of 33 recommended that this amount be included in the Fiscal Year 2021 budget to begin the process of acquiring a solution.
