The town unveiled its new website June 15, which according to Parks and Recreation Director Breyana Brandt, includes powerful new features and functions that will help improve information sharing.
Five headers include important facts about Moraga along with a tab for easy access to the Chamber of Commerce website, access to Administrative Services, General Government, the Moraga Library website, Moraga-Orinda Fire District website, Parks and Recreation (with a shortcut to the Hacienda de las Flores website), Planning Department, Moraga Police Department website and the Public Works Department. It also allows access to agendas, meeting minutes, committees and commissions, local agencies, town council information along with town departments and offices. There's also a header titled "How do I." that functions as an informational page.
By clicking on "Notify Me" the public can sign up for various notifications, and "Report an Issue" acts much like the Mobile Moraga app whereby things such as graffiti, hazards and potholes can be reported. There is also an "Activity Guide" which mirrors the mail-out version put out by Parks and Recreation; "Maps and GIS (Graphic Information System)" includes an interactive parcel mapping app; and the "About Town Newsletter" has current and archived town news.
Users can offer suggestions for the website (www.moraga.ca.us) at the bottom of the home page by clicking on "What did we miss?"
