The Nantucket Land Bank Commission authorized staff to proceed with a website redesign and approved a spending ceiling of up to $75,000 for the project.
Staff said the base cost of the website upgrade is about $38,000 and that additional work (branding, messaging or other contracted services) could increase the total; the commission voted to permit spending up to $75,000 to allow flexibility in contracting. Commissioners voted aye unanimously on the measure.
One commissioner observed that website design is costly and cautioned that the project could exceed initial estimates; staff noted the goal of having a new site completed by next summer and that the final cost would depend on scope and contractor selection.
Commissioners discussed signage and the value of property signage that links to web content, highlighting the potential for the redesigned site to host on-site interpretive material for Land Bank properties. Staff said they would proceed with procurement and report back on vendor selection and timeline.
