Huntington Beach Goes Live!
Huntington Beach will be the latest city to activate their citizens like never before using their MyHB mobile app. City officials found out that 40% of website visitors to the city’s website was from mobile devices. With features like Government, Beach Information, Experience HB, City News, Upcoming Events, and Services, citizens will discover it simpler than ever before to stay linked with their city with a couple of taps on their smart phone.
Residents and visitors alike is now able to learn more about facilities, libraries, points-of-interest and the over 100 parks, in addition to information, phone numbers, maps and directions, as well as have accessibility to city council agendas. They are able to stay informed and up-to-date on the latest happenings and upcoming events with the City News and Upcoming Events sections. The status of requested permits could be checked inside the app while using the permit number, APN or property address. Beach Information and facts are just about the most visited tabs on the city’s website. Now surfers and beach goers can find out beach conditions by incorporating taps inside the Whole City App. Beach and surf conditions furnished by Surfline are fed into the app daily at 7:05am. Capabilities and functions will periodically be included.
Monthly, town will feature a special tab to focus on a meeting or service that is unique to that particular month. Dynamic information is going to be time sensitive and ever-changing as events appear and disappear. The first such event could be the city’s upcoming airshow. The app is launching with functionality to promote the airshow, providing all pertinent event information and including an FAQ section. Also available, is going to be parking information, and Uber and Lyft drop-off and pick-up locations. Citizens should be able to report issues and incidents relating to the airshow that’ll be received, tracked, and resolved by police and city officials, depending on issue type. The info collected is going to be valuable not just to handle the issues since they are reported but to further improve upon citizen experience for all those future events.
Be on the lookout for your capability to Report an Issue with the app, because the city intends to replace their current issue reporting provider with the MyCivic RAI following the year.
