., JCD-Plus <br /> CD-Plus is a community development management system that allows for various <br /> modules that integrate with each other and can be customized to the specific <br /> applications for which it is intended . Among other functions the CD-Plus database is <br /> used for permitting and inspections, code enforcement, occupational license, <br /> development review, and growth management. A key opportunity exists for a <br /> county wide integration of the CD-Plus database with both standalone and Intranet <br /> GIS data browsers . The information maintained in the CD- Plus database can be CDPIuSTM <br /> spatially enabled and converted to GIS layers, allowing for GIS-based mapping and <br /> spatial analysis of building permits , inspections , and other pertinent information contained in the <br /> -- database . <br /> Map <br /> CD-Plus'' Interface <br /> Address Tier 1 .
