The formalization of the Camden County mobile app is an important step to bringing the residents an advanced connectivity and transparency to our county government. The days of standing in line at a municipal building or waiting on hold to make a service request is shifting with the advent of technologies that give citizens easier access to their municipalities. This new and easy-to-use mobile app will transform the way residents and visitors interact with local government offices in Camden County. The mobile app was developed with our website partner CivicPlus and works seamlessly with our website design to provide consistent, comprehensive, and real-time information to our users. Updates to our website’s content are automatically synced to the app in real-time. While the current county website is completely mobile-friendly, this app takes technology and customer-service to the next level by providing quick access to the county’s most popular content. Just some of the amazing features available on the new app include easy access to our current Calendar of Events; Notify Me subscription to receive periodic notifications regarding what's most important to you about Camden County; Direct Links to the county’s Social Media; a full Staff Directory; Meeting Agendas; Annual Reports; Strategic Plans; Parks and Recreation; and Electronic Bill Pay, where a resident can pay traffic citations, vehicle tags, and property taxes all with the push of a button.
