Local Government
Access to public information is part of public service.
Clear websites help residents, staff, and local leaders find the information that keeps a community moving.
What the People Need
Make the important things easier to reach.
Local government sites need more than a list of offices. They need understandable paths to documents, updates, departments, plans, and the services people need in the moment.
Critical Factors For Selecting Ez Information Management as Your Website Developer
Meeting Website Accessibility Requirements
The software we use to deliver website content supports the WCAG 2.1 AA conformance requirements. We also use multiple scanning tools to ensure our layouts comply. We can provide a completed VPAT spreadsheet showing the website's accessibility.
Safe and Secure Website Hosting
Security: We use a hardened hosting platform with automated software patching and continuous intrusion monitoring.
Ownership: We recommend the county hold the domain, hosting, admin, and backup accounts to ensure you always own your data. We will help set these up and retain the specific access needed to manage the site.
Cost Projections
Here is our generalized ten-year cost projection, estimated at $18,000 for a typical system. Larger systems obviously cost more.
- First 3 Years: Development: Estimated @$6,000+
- Years 4 - 5: Maintenance Only: Spot Refresh: $3,000+
- Site Refresh, Years 5 - 7: Estimated @$4,500+
- Years 8 - 10: Maintenance Only: Spot Refresh: $4,500+

Built with the people responsible for it
A useful public site earns trust over time.
Ez begins by talking to the people who know the community and the work. That creates a site that reflects how a city or county actually operates, instead of forcing staff and residents into an unfamiliar structure.
Training matters here too. When the people closest to the information can keep it current, the public gets a better, more dependable resource.
