In less than three weeks, residents will be able to access county information and services easier than ever before by visiting Livingston County’s redesigned website. The new website design will offer easier access to the most used pages and services, as well as a cleaner, simpler layout for visitors to navigate.
For the last six months, each county office and department has refreshed its content to ensure that the new site is user-focused and provides the information our residents, local businesses, and community partners need. The new site is easy to navigate, has a fresh look and feel, requires less clicks, features an intelligent and robust search engine, is mobile responsive, and compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
While www.livgov.com will continue to direct you to the county’s website, we’ll be announcing a new domain name closer to the site launch.
Key changes and new website features include:
• Simplified and organized navigational tabs are featured on the website’s header to help residents quickly find the information they are looking for. County Departments and Offices are found under the “Government” tab, while all Livingston County Courts can be found under the “Courts” tab. The “Services” and “How Do I” tabs feature the most visited departments and services for easy access. Throughout the website, these most sought-out pages and services are also prominently featured with icon buttons.
• Stay up-to-date with County news by exploring the recently added News Room. Here you’ll find the latest press releases and announcements. You’ll even be able to sign up to get the latest news delivered straight to your inbox. There is also an expanded calendar of public meetings for County Board and Committees. A new Featured Events section showcases major County events like Open Houses, Recycling Collections, and more.
• The website was designed with a more aesthetically pleasing color scheme and features photos that highlight the County’s beautiful scenery. With such an abundance of eye-catching landscapes, the County wants to share as much of our local nature as possible on our website. If you know of a beautiful and scenic location in Livingston county, please let us know or send us a photo you’ve taken so we can feature it on our website. Send your recommendations and photos to communications@livgov.com.
• Links to the County’s official social media sites are included in the site’s footer and participating Departments, like the Sheriff’s Office, Animal Shelter, and Health Department. Residents are encouraged to follow the County for the latest news, events, and announcements. Livingston County’s website and social media pages are important ways the County communicates with residents about what resources are available and how our government is operating.
