3/22/13 - Residents of Green Oak Township will have better access to municipal resources and government when a new township website is launched in the next fiscal year. Supervisor Mark St. Charles says the current township website is a bare-minimum resource that was put into place when the majority of the township was using dial-up Internet. He says it is difficult to navigate and cumbersome to update, and so is not an effective tool for residents. The township board recently approved spending $8,900 to create a new, more modern website. St. Charles tells WHMI in addition to being updated more frequently, the website will give the township new tools to serve the public. St. Charles says the township will be able to showcase photos and news from around area, increase access to official forms and permits, and serve as a more effective communication tool for the community. He says he is also excited about the possibility of frequent online surveys to improve feedback from residents. Work on the website should begin shortly after the start of the new fiscal year on April 1st. (TD)
