What does a councillor’s website need?
Not one of my more informative posts, this one, more a cry for help.
I’ve been approached by a couple of councillors to develop a website for them, and I’m interested to know what sort of features would be required for such a site to be considered best of breed.
For example:
- Blog style layout
- Events/meeting listings
- Local maps
- Easy methods of contact
- Feedback through comments, etc
None of these seem particularly exciting to me! Anyone got anything really good that ought to be included – or great examples of Councillor websites?

Ward based KPI dashboard displaying service requests (road work, watermain repairs, graffiti hits, etc.). Real time if possible!

I'm assuming your council is like our elected house of representatives - correct? Or is it more like a local government?
For elected officials - http://foxx.house.gov/ is not a bad example
For local gov't - check out Park County which has won some awards - http://www.parkco.us/
