Austin wants to hear from you as officials prepare to redesign the official city website.
Earlier this month, the city completed a web usage survey as the first step in AustinGO, an initiative intended to "help achieve a new era in open government."
Now a series of town hall meetings has been scheduled, with the first one set for Tuesday at City Hall. The results of the survey will be shared with the public, along with an outline of best practices embraced by other cities. You'll also have a forum to offer ideas on the new municipal site.
For more information, contact Christopher Florance at 974-2980.
The full schedule of town hall meetings:
- Tuesday, January 29, 6 p.m.; City Hall, Council Chambers; 301 West Second Street
- Monday, February 4, 7 p.m.; George Washington Carver Museum; 1161 Angelina St.
- Thursday, February 7, 7 p.m.; J.J. Pickle Research Campus Commons Conference Center, Building 137; 10100 Burnet Road
- Tuesday, February 12, 7 p.m.; Ruiz Branch Library, 1600 Grove Blvd.
- Thursday, February 21, 7 p.m.; Austin Community College Pinnacle Campus, room 1013; 7748 U.S. 290 West
- Monday, February 25, 7 p.m.; Lower Colorado River Authority Headquarters, board room; 3700 Lake Austin Blvd.

Yes, because designing something by committee is a good idea.
There is just no way to please all the people all of the time, if you try you will end up with something that pleases no one. Look at what a clusterfuck the NYC Freedom Tower has been.
There are a million talented web design firms in Austin whose main purpose is to figure what content should be on a website and how it should look.
Ugh.
