Interns showcase website overhaul, emergency‑operations inventory and SB 1383 outreach to council
Summary
Two city interns presented summer projects to the Rolling Hills City Council on Aug. 10, 2026: a website redesign and records workflow, and an Emergency Operations Center inventory plus SB 13 83 outreach materials and webpage content.
At the Aug. 10 Rolling Hills City Council meeting, two summer interns described completed projects that staff says will improve resident access to planning materials and the city’s emergency preparations.
Alexander Delatory told the council he redesigned the planning pages and created quick links to reduce duplication and improve navigation. "I developed a hierarchy for files to be listed, relevant files ... an easier accessible page to navigate and, a streamline process for for the community," he said. Staff noted the new planning quick link is live under Government → Planning and that the revised site includes tools to enlarge text and provide multilingual options.
High‑school intern Gregory Willis reviewed his EOC work and SB 13 83 outreach. "The 1st project I worked on was centered around the Emergency Operations Center or EOC," Willis said, describing an inventory of supply bins, the discovery of expired batteries and missing ICS forms, and his work compiling FEMA templates for the city’s EOC binders. Willis said he also produced an outreach‑tracking record and put a page about SB 13 83 on the city website to document what the city is doing to meet the law’s education requirements under its low‑population waiver.
Council members praised the interns’ work and asked technical questions: members asked whether the new pages explain what tasks are city responsibilities versus the homeowners association’s, and whether the website meets accessibility (ADA) requirements. Alexander said the planning page contains a direct quick link to the Rolling Hills Community Association and that he will confirm any remaining ADA checks with staff. Staff confirmed the new site includes font‑enlargement and language features and said ADA requirements were reviewed after the migration to the new platform.
The council presented certificates and took photographs, and staff said the internship presentations will be included in future outreach materials.
