City Gives Website New Look

The city of Hermosa Beach’s website now has a new look.

While the site still offers meeting agendas, public notices, news releases and a city calendar, it’s includes colorful imagery and organized navigation system.

"In our ongoing efforts to ensure transparency and accountability, the city created this new website to make information more easily and readily available and accessible to the public," said Mayor Howard Fishman in a statement Monday. "Visitors to the website can find recreational programs for their children, apply for parking permits, watch videotapes of council meetings, identify the closest park and get information about all the services the city offers."

City staffers are able to make changes to the site without having to bring on outside assistance, according to the statement.

"Communication with the public is a vital city function, and the new website uses the latest tools to ensure the city provides essential information to anyone who visits the site," Fishman said. "We appreciate all the hard work of the city staff in creating the content and managing the launch of this site. We look forward to getting feedback from the public regarding the new site."

The site address has remained the same: hermosabch.org. What do you think of the new design?
