Mayor’s Taskforce Report on E-Government

The Mayor’s Taskforce on E-Government report was recently made public and posted on an Igloo-powered social network at http://ottawa.taskforcereport.ca/.  If you haven’t read through it yet, I would encourage you to do so and provide your comments. A number of the ideas and examples highlighted in the report could easily be taken on by the community.

It was nice to see that they highlighted a map-based problem reporting tool that exist in several other jurisdictions; something I’ve been working at in some of my spare time over a few weekends. FixIt Ottawa should be out soon as soon as I hear back from the City (ironically enough) on getting some ward boundary polygons. You can grab a copy a copy of the report here.
