Summary
- Following several scheduling adjustments requested by residents ahead of the meeting, the session ultimately commenced at 6:00pm.
App Development Progress
- There will be no change to the front-end app, which is currently functioning well:
- Real-time license plate capture operational
- Instant cross-referencing against membership database
- All parking instances and SIA interactions logged automatically
- The only change to the App relates to data hosting. Data is currently stored with a third-party provider, and TRG intends to bring this in-house. The necessary backend work is currently underway:
- Transitioning from third-party data storage to internal storage system
- No planned changes to front-end functionality
- Migration will only proceed once replacement system matches current performance and reliability
- No additional app functionality currently planned:
- KSRA invited to suggest any future improvements or requirements
