Board approves $90,781.78 OpenGov maintenance for Viewpoint permits system

Danbury City’s Board of Awards voted to approve annual maintenance and licensing payments to OpenGov for the Viewpoint permits and community development system, the city’s technology director said.

Director of Technology Services Frank Gentile submitted a requisition to OpenGov for the Viewpoint Community Development and Permits Management System and included a sole‑source justification indicating OpenGov is the developer of the proprietary software in use. Gentile presented the total invoice cost as $90,781.78. "This is to have the subject service provided," he said during the item presentation. Purchasing Agent Chip Boca moved to award the requisition to OpenGov under sole‑source justification; the motion was seconded.

The transcript records brief procedural remarks and two affirmative roll‑call statements in succession; the chair recorded the motion as carrying unanimously. The transcript excerpt does not include a complete roll call or additional detail on the contract term, renewal period or funding line, which were not specified at the meeting.
