The Village of Mamaroneck has retained Matrix Consulting Group to evaluate the Village's Land Use Boards, as well as the Building Department in terms of permitting, customer service and workflow in its pursuit for continuous improvement and to be a valuable and efficient resource to those seeking to construct, improve, rehab or develop property within the Village. The purpose of this analysis is to determine areas where the services provided by the Land Use Board and the Building Department can be improved and enhanced and to receive a set of recommendations with an actionable implementation plan for the Village to follow. The Village’s ultimate goal through this plan is to better enforce State and local building codes for the protection of life and property and to enhance the quality of life of everyone living, working or visiting the Village.
The analysis will include an evaluation of the Land Use Boards processes including better use of technology. An analysis shall also be conducted of the Building Department workflow, customer service and permitting procedures including but not limited to: inspections, interaction with the public, coordination with the various departments (e.g., Fire, Police and Public Works) and Boards it interacts with, current technology utilized in this work and the overall timeliness of these functions.
