George Municipality

The George Municipality Citizen Engagement Application allows the Municipality to effectively connect, communicate with, and service citizens across all socio-economic strata by delivering mobile application services to every type of mobile phone (smart and non-smart) and all digital devices.

The benefits of using direct channels of communication, particularly via mobile devices, for the Municipality is fourfold: the technology can improve management; it promotes a greater understanding of Citizens; it reduces the costs of public participation and ultimately it will improve service delivery.

The benefits for the citizens are that they have a direct channel of communication with the Municipality; are able to interact with the municipality and have access anytime and anywhere – all at reduced costs in time and money.

These are some of the features and functions you can expect when using the George Municipality Citizen Engagement Application:

• Notifications – Contextualised communications from the Municipality

• Fault Logging – You can log faults or queries directly from the App

• Agent Chat – Live chat to a Citizen Support Agent

• Click to Call – A list of important contact numbers for the Municipality’s various divisions that can easily be dialled directly from the App

• Twitter Feed – In App access to the Municipality’s Twitter communications

• Feedback – Option to send any type of Feedback directly to the Municipality

• Share – Ability to virally Share the App with your friends and family

We hope you enjoy using the George Municipality Citizen Engagement Application and we look forward to receiving your Feedback.
