Our jurisdiction had an $8,000 contract with a company to build a ticket writing module so that when we issue citations electronically instead of hand writing, we would swipe their DL similar to the Police program for running a red light or speeding and the citation would print out the code violated and all of the violators DL information and we would just have them sign.
Unfortunately the company was absorbed by another company and the new company will no longer honor our contract. I have checked the Central Florida area and our City is about the only one that issues citations on a regular basis, so no one has ever made the initial investment to have a program written for them that we could purchase or piggy back and begin using.
The reason I am writing you is to ask if you or any of your southern jurisdictions use a ticket writer program or does everyone still hand write citations? Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Do you know of any Florida Code Enforcement Agencies that have a paperless case file system with digital forms (Notices, Citations, and Notices to Appear, etc) and signatures of alleged violators?
If so please leave comments for:

I am the chronic nuisance officer for the City of West Palm Beach and I am hoping you can help me. I am trying to adapt a re-inspection fee schedule to use for owner occupied properties that do not comply.
(Our Chronic nuisance ordinance does not fall under the typical FSS-162 daily fines)
I am wondering if any city in Florida charges a fee for each re-inspections in situations like these. I have been looking in Municode and also making phone calls, and have come up empty so far. Does Florida not ever allow fees for code inspections?
I mean there seems to be fees for everything else and these seem like an excessive use of resources above the traditional levels of enforcement paid for by the taxpayers we serve.
