Cornish council agrees to move town website to Revise; routine bills moved
Summary
Council approved switching the town website to vendor Revise under the terms discussed (about $900/year, setup either self-done or provided for $250) and moved routine bills; the meeting included domain-migration plans to the cornishdtau.gov domain.
The Cornish council voted to proceed with a new municipal website vendor and moved routine bills during a regular meeting.
Chris (addressed in the transcript as the meeting lead) reviewed competing options after Townweb informed the town of a substantial price increase. Revise, an alternative vendor, offered an annual fee of about $900 and either no setup fee if the town performed setup itself or an option for the vendor to do setup for $250. The council agreed to switch to Revise, migrate the cornishdtau.gov domain, and retain the existing cornish.org redirect.
The transcript records a motion to move the website to Revise and apparent assent from council members; no roll-call tally or formal recorded vote is printed in the minutes. Council members also moved a routine motion to pay bills; that motion was seconded and carried by voice as part of the meeting’s consent actions.
Why it matters: the vendor choice affects the town’s recurring operating cost and how the town will host meeting minutes, bill-pay integrations and the .gov domain compliance. The council discussed integrations for online bill pay and confirmed the vendor will help migrate the domain.
What’s next: staff will implement the migration to Revise, determine whether the town will perform setup internally or pay the vendor’s setup fee, and proceed with bill-pay integration. Both the website decision and the bills motion appear in the meeting record (transcript SEG 899–SEG 1012 and SEG 1016–SEG 1024).
