Before the close of 2013, the City of Hoover plans to have a revamped website that allows for more efficient two-way communication between administration and residents.
In September, Mayor Gary Ivey was authorized to pursue a contract with CivicPlus, a Kansasbased company that provides web management to more than 1,000 government associations. The current proposal being considered by the mayor agrees to pay CivicPLus more than $53,000 over a four year period.
Government officials believe the process of implementing the changeover will take about six months, but the end result will be a more efficient means of communicating with residents.
