Since 2014, the city of Richmond, TX has hosted their Unified Development Code (UDC) with enCodePlus. They were drawn to the user-friendly appearance and standard features of the portal, which include hyperlinked internal cross-references, hyperlinked definitions, collaborative drafting capability, and search functionality.
Over the years, Richmond’s portal has expanded to include a Public Infrastructure Design Manual, and they are currently in the process of drafting their 2040 Comprehensive Plan using the CloudWriter software in partnership with Kendig Keast Collaborative. In addition, their custom site branding received an update in 2020 to keep up with changing web design trends and capabilities.
Premium features include GeoZone GIS tools with Site Selector and Land Use Lookup that let users identify landmarks, land uses, and dimensional standards by choosing a specific parcel on the map. Quick Reference Tables gather important and commonly-referenced tables from the UDC in one place, allowing users to quickly find information such as permitted land uses, parking requirements, permit needs, and more, without scrolling through pages of text.
Richmond contracts with enCodePlus for ongoing codification of their Unified Development Code, allowing our experts to handle publishing the text updates while they focus on keeping their city a desirable home for their residents.
Fully customizable websites with branding, messaging, images, videos, color schemes.
