Outcomes

Using digital legislative management solutions allows government to streamline cross-departmental workflows, modernize the public meeting experience, and establish meaningful connections with constituents. Most importantly, it reduces the stress and burden of running meetings and allows clerks to focus on high-priority, high-visibility projects.

AUTOMATE WORKFLOWS AND INCREASE COLLABORATION Route items through a fully configurable, automated approval process that notifies assigned users when new items are ready for their review. Microsoft Word integration enables staff to easily edit system-generated agenda docs. Pinellas County, FL, experienced a 75% reduction in workflow approval time with Legistar.

EFFORTLESS MEETING MANAGEMENT TOOLS ELIMINATE MEETING STRESS Legistar’s in-meeting features simplify roll call, minute taking, voting, and public comments and requests to speak. Legislate — the online agenda review and notation tool for elected officials — improves meeting readiness and streamlines meetings.

BUILT FOR THE LARGEST ORGANIZATIONS WITH THE MOST COMPLEX LEGISLATIVE PROCESSES Unlimited users and data storage mean Legistar can grow with you, while granular permission levels enable users to limit access to confidential or sensitive information.
