Each month more than 650,000 visitors come to miamidade.gov. Since it was launched in 2001, the County's web portal has grown to accommodate our diverse audience's particular needs. In fact, portal personalization features make it possible for us to offer customized content based on user selections and offer portal alerts to our subscribers. People are busier than ever, but they still want to stay informed.

People are doing things online, and when they do, it represents one less visit to county offices, one less check that must be mailed, opened and processed. It represents a time and money savings to the public, and allows them to conduct business with the county at any time of day, any day of the week. Streamlined processes associated with these projects provide citizens with service in a fraction of the time. Building inspection results, for example, that once took up to two days can now be obtained within minutes of the inspection.

Miamidade.gov earned a "Best of Class" award from the National Association of County Information Officers in 2005 and was judged "Best of the Web" in 2004.
