C4GNV is a member brigade of Code for America, the goal of this project is to make it easier to start a business in Gainesville by providing people easy access to permits and zoning information. The project is a lightweight website written in Typescript and Angular 2, using open data sources as a persistent backend.
The inspiration for this service is to eventually be able to expand to be like the Business Portal for San Francisco, however we're starting with the Permit Locator functionality only.
