Committee reviews website template, asks staff to produce color and photo options
Summary
Committee members reviewed a website template and requested color palette alternatives and local photography; staff reported meetings with departments and will return with revised mockups at the next committee meeting.
Township staff updated the planning committee on progress for the Plymouth Township website redesign and the committee provided design feedback focused on colors and photography.
Staff reported they have met most departments to gather content and are moving toward a "less-is-more" design approach. Members said the template showed too much empty space and suggested compacting the layout. Several members requested brighter or lighter color options and asked staff to prepare color mockups for the next meeting.
The committee also emphasized replacing filler stock photography with local images. Members suggested capturing upcoming community events — for example, Plymouth Little League opening day — and compiling photos from staff and volunteers rather than relying solely on staged stock images. Staff agreed to assemble available township photos and present options and sample hero images at the next meeting.
The committee set next steps: staff will produce color examples, gather photos and present sample webpage mockups at the following meeting; the design work will proceed in parallel with the newsletter recommendation being presented to the council.
