Using Trakit
What should be inputted into Trakit?
- All encroachment permits
- All major City projects in the Right-of-Way (that would ordinarily require an encroachment permit)
Why require an encroachment permit for City projects? This is so that this construction work shows up in our system . When the front office gets calls about projects, they check Buildingeye (see below). If it's a City project, and it's not entered in Buildingeye, it will be very difficult to track down who in DPW's project it is or if it's a private contractor working without a permit. Therefore, City projects should be entered into Buildingeye once construction starts. Of course there is no fee for an encroachment permit entered for a City project.
