Citizen Connect is live!

Citizen Connect is an online portal that centralizes access to permits, planning applications, code compliance cases, and licenses within Lawrence and Douglas County.

This tool streamlines information access, offering residents a single resource to view city activities and updates. It replaces multiple maps and reports which were previously available online, and allows data filtering and downloading for personalized analysis.

Users can also create personalized alert areas to receive notifications about activities happening in their neighborhoods. Citizen Connect can be accessed online at https://cityoflawrence-ks-cc.connect.socrata.com.
