Adams' website gets an upgrade
ADAMS TWP — Those who log onto the Adams Township website will find a user-friendly page.
Supervisor Russ Ford said it was impossible for users to interact with the old site, which also had little useful township information. The Web address will remain the same, www.adamstwp.org.
He said a focus group including himself and a handful of township employees interviewed four website providers before choosing The Web Spinner of Cranberry Township to build the new site.
Ford said on the new site, users can book pavilion rentals, read code enforcement information and regulations, apply for permits and inspections, peruse the films to be shown in the township’s Movies in the Park program, view taxpayer information, access the police department and ambulance service information and Web addresses, and scroll through events in the township.
He said Bill Kessler of The Web Spinner provided not only the new website, but extensive training for staff members who will administer the site. Ford said township staff members were unable to make changes to the old website, and had to pay the webmaster to make changes.
Ford said the township is continuing to add new items to the site, and welcomes input from taxpayers. He said e-mail addresses for staffers will be added soon.
“It’s still going to be a work in progress,” Ford said.
Kessler said it took about two months to get the site up and running.
