If Gilroy tourists want a Garlic Festival apron, a G-Fest

The City of Gilroy has announced the introduction of new software by Accela that makes it easier for staff to prepare staff reports and agendas for the City Council and Planning Commission. The switch, which went live for the November 21st city council meeting, according to a press release, makes the process more efficient, less-time consuming and near paperless. Staff training on the new software package began in October and the result is a process that automates the entire staff report preparation, circulation and approval process for better workflow and productivity. The system then creates the agenda and meeting packet - completely eliminating paper. "What used to take 4-5 hours to accomplish with a manual paper process now takes 10 minutes to complete - with just a click of a button we have a council packet ready for distribution," stated City Clerk, Shawna Freels.
