🤝 In a recent conversation with Amber Howell, Communications Specialist for the City of Perry, GA, we got an inside look at how Citibot is transforming the way municipalities communicate with their residents. Amber shared, "We have a very large website, lots of information, and a communications team of two. We can only do so much." ✍This statement perfectly captures a common challenge faced by municipalities across the country: maintaining effective communication with residents around the clock. In Perry, Georgia, this was particularly pressing due to the expectations of 24/7 communication and the small size of their team. Citibot stepped in to bridge this gap, offering solutions that enable cities like Perry to manage and exceed these expectations. "Our Citibot, Perry points, has aided with that issue," Amber noted, highlighting the impact Citibot has had on improving accessibility and responsiveness. This mirrors our mission at Citibot, where we strive to build trust between governments and residents by providing accessible, AI-powered chat solutions. Our tools are designed to enhance efficiency, improve customer service, and facilitate real-time communication—critical factors in fostering a connected community. Amber's insights also touched on diversity and the evolving needs of communities. "How are we engaging equally the 75-year-old lifelong resident to the 22-year-old Spanish-speaking single mother that just moved to town?" she asked. Our multi-channel, accessible chat communications are the answer. Join us in revolutionizing municipal communication with Citibot! Enhance resident engagement and efficiency.

🌳The Project: The Caroline Project was designed to bring more commercial and residential options to this up and coming neighborhood. The property will be transformed into a commercial center. Chasen Construction & Development of Baltimore, MD, acquired the property and project in early 2020. This 5-story building will serve as an Amazon hub and will have 31 residential units above for a total of 5-stories. 🔴The Situation: Originally the designers specified rammed-aggregate piles in the initial foundation designs. Helical piles were offered as a value-engineered alternative because of the size and location of the project, no spoils to remove, and no potential problems with adjoining properties due to vibration. CHANCE’s SS175/RS3500 combo piles were specified, giving added lateral capacity. These piles use the CHANCE SS175-to-RS3500 transition casting to connect the SS175 leads to the RS3500 extensions. 🌟The Solution: The switch from rammed-aggregate to helical piles saved the developers significant money/time. The finished 5-story building is expected to be 30,000 sq./ft. The newly constructed building will be a combination of commercial space, on the ground floor, and residential above. It will feature an Amazon Hub, dog grooming area, rooftop deck and courtyard.  CHANCE Combo Piles: 122 combo piles, installed to a depth of 30’ /-: SS175 – 8”, 10”, 12” x 5’ Lead SS175/RS3500 – Transitions RS3500.300 – 7’ Extensions RS3500.300 – New Construction Brackets #geotechnicalengineering #structuralengineering #helicalpiles #deepfoundation #rammedaggregate #screwpiles #geopier

The City of Rock Hill, SC and the South Carolina Office of Resilience (SCOR) obtained a federal grant to determine the causes of flooding issues—and find solutions—within the South Central neighborhood. Now, to help us identify where the flooding is occurring, we need citizen input! The more information you can provide, the better. Where is it flooding? How frequently does it flood? How much area does the flooding cover? How deep does the water get? Does this link to a specific storm event, like a hurricane or nor’easter? Read more about the project here and scroll down to "Public Input" to take the survey: https://lnkd.in/divmig-D
