County to replace website and agenda software; new site targeted for Oct. 30 and agenda software in November
Summary
Chippewa County staff reported the county will launch a redesigned website on Oct. 30 and replace its agenda/minutes software in November to improve usability and integration between web and meeting platforms.
County staff reported the county will redesign its public website with a planned go-live date of Oct. 30 and migrate to a new agenda and minutes management system in November. Staff said the vendor providing the website also supplies the county’s new agenda software, which should improve integration between packet hosting and meeting publishing.
Staff said the new site will standardize department pages, alphabetize menus, improve mobile responsiveness and make it easier for the public to find meeting materials online. Training for staff and meeting clerks will be scheduled in late October and into November; the first meeting to use the new agenda software will be the economic development meeting followed by budget hearings.
Supervisors raised practical questions about links and navigation. Staff confirmed existing URLs will continue to work, but some bookmarked subpages may need updating, and staff demonstrated an interactive agenda view (click the meeting date rather than the packet link) that allows users to open specific agenda documents without scrolling through the whole packet.
Why it matters: The change aims to make county information easier to access for the public and streamline meeting management for staff and supervisors.
What happens next: Staff will complete training and implement the website and agenda software rollout on the published timelines and provide demonstrations for supervisors.
