The Routt County Planning Department in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, plays a vital role in ensuring that land usage in the county is lawful, efficient, and sustainable. The department issues various permits for different land uses, each requiring a public notice component.
Routt County Planning places these notices in their local paper, the Steamboat Pilot & Today. The newspaper then publishes and distributes the information to the public. In July 2022, the Steamboat Pilot & Today started partnering with Column to streamline public notice placement and offer their county a more convenient self-serve experience.
Michael Eggert, the Planning Office Technician, is an active Column user. “I use Column a little bit every day,” said Eggert. “I use it to place ads, make the payments, and see when our planners place ads. I love how it all happens really fast. There’s not a ton of delay, and I haven’t experienced any hiccups using it. Column is very intuitive to use. We had to add new payments recently, which was really easy.”
Kelly commends Column for “helping us ensure we get notices out to the community. It increases our visibility into what notices are in progress and lets us easily track their payment statuses. It also conveniently consolidates all information related to each notice, including its progress, billing status, and any necessary actions that need to be taken.”
