NORTHFIELD – After hearing presentations Jan. 13 from two website design and management companies, village officials have set a work session for Jan. 27 at 7 p.m. to discuss the proposals for launching a new website.
Law Director Brad Bryan called the city’s current website “functioning and bare bones.” He added, “The former website was old and obsolete, and the village has decided not to renew its contract with the former website designer/administrator.”
The former designer/administrator offered to charge $11,500 to build a new website, plus $225 per month for administration. “The mayor decided not to move forward with that offer and to look for another company,” Bryan said.
