Municipal website

The municipality's public website: information, statutory transparency and access to the electronic services.

The municipal website is the public site of the local authority — built on an open-source content management system (Drupal, latest stable version) — through which the institution publishes information about the municipality and the administration and provides access to the platform's electronic services. The site is managed entirely without programming knowledge, from structure to content, through interfaces dedicated to each type of information.

 
Municipal websites built on the Smart Digital City platform

Municipal websites in production: the 6th District of Bucharest, the town of Horezu and the town of Chitila.

What changes in public communication

The municipality has a living site that stays current: statutory information is published up to date, content is easy to manage, and permits and projects appear automatically from the internal portal, with no duplicate work.

Over 40 predefined content typesCouncil decisions, organisational chart, rules of procedure, budget, notices, events
Automatic publication from the internal portalPermits, planning certificates, participatory budgeting
Any piece of information within three clicksA flexible structure that can be rearranged over time

A site on an open-source CMS

Built on Drupal, managed entirely without programming knowledge.

Tailored design

Three proposals for structure and design, adapted to the identity of the municipality and refined through iterations.

Statutory transparency

The information required by freedom-of-information legislation: budget, decisions, asset declarations, recruitment competitions, the annual procurement plan.

Predefined content

Over 40 standard types: council decisions, organisational chart, rules of procedure, notices, news, events, investment projects.

Automatic publication

Content taken from the internal portal: building permits, planning certificates, participatory budgeting.

Easy administration

Dedicated interfaces for each type of information; structure and content managed visually.

Presenting the community

Landmarks, events and photo and video media — the municipality, for residents and visitors.

In line with W3C, WAI and WCAG recommendations, including for people with disabilities.

Native integrations

The public website is the platform's window onto residents and visitors.

The internal portal, for content published automatically
The resident portal, for access to the electronic services
The interactive map, for landmarks and geospatial information
The notifications component, for update subscriptions

Part of the same platform

The municipal website is not a separate site maintained by hand alongside the platform. Permits, certificates and projects appear on it directly from the internal portal, with no re-publishing.

How you can start

You do not have to digitise the whole institution at once.

START ONE

The municipal website can be implemented on its own, as a first step towards digitisation.

START PRO + MUNICIPAL WEBSITE

If you already have the platform, the public site picks up the content generated by the modules automatically.
