<br />City of La Porte <br />Interoffice Memorandum <br /> <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />Through: <br /> <br />January 24,2008 <br /> <br />Subject: <br /> <br />Website Updates <br /> <br />As you know, staff has been working on an RFP/Q for the hiring of a website <br />development firm for a city-wide revamp of our website since the previous bids were <br />rejected by the Board, at the recommendation of the Evaluation Committee. Since that <br />time we have completed an overall system analysis (platform and navigation mapping) <br />and solicited departmental input. We hope that this time we will receive bids from <br />companies with actual experience in developing governmental websites and perhaps <br />more consistency with which to compare prices. <br /> <br />The City has $10,000 available in the Main Street Program for a portion on the funding <br />and is seeking approval from the Board for the remainder of the funds. Currently we <br />estimate that we will need $50,000 for the complete overhaul of the site with $40,000 of <br />the funds being requested of the LPEDC. <br /> <br />If all goes as planned and the Board is agreeable to the suggested funding then staff <br />would include the funding request as an action item at our next meeting. <br /> <br />c: Ron Bottoms, City Manager <br />
