Summary

Commissioner Gretchen Janssen, County Clerk Jennifer Kelly and IT contract employee Alex Radke agreed to serve on an ad hoc committee to redesign Houghton County’s website and coordinate requests with contractor Opus.

Houghton County commissioners established an ad hoc committee on Feb. 2 to guide a refresh of the county website after officials described difficulties navigating existing pages and forms.

Commissioner Gretchen Janssen, IT contract employee Alex Radke and County Clerk Jennifer Kelly agreed to serve on the Ad Hoc Website Update Committee and will consult with Opus, the county's contractor, on requested changes and department inputs.
