Agendas, minutes, job postings, trash collection, and everything your users want to know about can get lost on a disorganized website. But at Town Web, we understand that your website can be the most effective form of communication between you and your residents.

The 5 Crucial Steps for Local Government Website Design

Planning the perfect local government website design is not easy. However, at Town Web, we have mastered the 5 steps to making your website the best it can be. As you read and consider these steps, refer to our case study on Colts Neck, NJ, to see what type of site we can build for you

1. Determine Your Site’s Objectives

All great websites have a clear objective. What's yours? Some local governments see their websites as a resource for the public to find information. Others see them as a means to elicit engagement with their residents. Most prefer a unique balance that fits their community.

2. Know What Info Your Residents Want, And How They Want It

All great websites have a clear objective. What's yours? Some local governments see their websites as a resource for the public to find information. Others see them as a means to elicit engagement with their residents. Most prefer a unique balance that fits their community.

3. Account for Responsive Design

Some users will peruse your website at leisure on their desktop; others will need quick info while they're on the go. Your website should accommodate both. Every local government website design by Town Web is responsive and formats on the fly to accommodate displays of any configuration.

4. Comply with Accessibility Regulations

Design is not just about convenience; it's about the law. All our designs are ADA and Section 508 compliant, providing users of all abilities the access they need to get the most out of their local government website. As regulations change, our designs will evolve to account for them.

5. Accommodate Multiple Languages

Not everyone is a native English speaker. We can use simple tools to allow users access to your site in many different languages. This extra functionality allows new arrivals to get the information they need to settle in and learn what makes your town special.
