The City of Fishers has rolled-out a new phone app, Fishers Connect, to make it easier to communicate when you need to deal with city departments. The app is designed to contact the city for non-emergency issues.
Examples of situations where the new app may come in handy include city maintained roadways, street signs, storm water, water, sewer, streetlights, and park infrastructure elements. The app also provides quick links to City information and forms related to City services. The free app is now available for download from the App Store and on Google Play.
The new app also allows residents to submit a photo illustrating the issue.
“Fishers Connect makes it easier than ever for our residents to report concerns directly to their city government, and allows for increased transparency as residents can view all of the issues reported across their community and follow the progress of these issues until they are resolved,” said Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness in a city news release. “We are always looking to centralize information and resources for our residents, and Fishers Connect truly serves as that one-stop-shop.”
