Selectmen authorize staff to research switching town website to .gov
Summary
For cybersecurity reasons the board authorized staff member Renee to investigate changing the Town of Roxbury website domain to a .gov address, up to the point where costs would be incurred; motion approved 3-0.
The Board of Selectmen authorized Renee, on behalf of the Town of Roxbury, to research and begin the process of switching the town website domain to a .gov address for cyber security reasons. Selectman Timothy Derouche moved for the authorization; the motion was seconded by Selectman Matthew Patneaude and approved 3-0. The authorization is limited to investigation and preparatory work 'up to before it costs any money.'
Board members asked that staff gather information on the process and any potential costs and report back before committing funds. The decision does not yet allocate funds for the domain change; it allows staff to consult vendors and the necessary authorities to understand feasibility and next steps.
