Communications staff: Prichard site now lists council contact info and posts past agendas
Summary
A communications staff member told the Prichard City Council that cityofprichard.org now shows each council member’s phone and email under their photo and that a new 'meeting agendas' page is being populated with past agendas and will be updated when the city clerk sends files.
A communications staff member at the Prichard City Council meeting announced that the city website now displays each council member’s contact details and that a new page for meeting agendas is being populated.
The staff member said the contact page lists phone numbers and email addresses under each council member’s photo and that tapping a photo opens a direct email. The staff member added that cityofprichard.org ("Not .gov. It's .org.") now includes a 'meeting agendas' page and that staff are uploading previous meeting agendas and will post new agendas immediately when they receive them from the city clerk.
Council members and staff characterized the change as a transparency and constituent-service improvement: residents and business owners will be able to pull up agendas in advance of meetings to review items they may want to address. The announcement did not include a timeline for when the archive will be complete.
