<h3>About The Project:</h3>
<p>Park Township&#8217;s website had not had any professional help in a long time, and maintaining the site using an outdated WYSIWYG offline editor had left the site in a bad state of repair.  It was time to make the Park Township site as beautiful as the scenery in the area.</p>
<p>We developed two redesign concepts which eventually resulted in the custom designed template seen on the Park Township site now.  We integrated the custom design into an easy to use content management system, and then built out some custom features that let Park Township stay connected with its residents.</p>
<h3>Key Features:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Custom layout design</li>
<li>Industry standard open source content management system (CMS)</li>
<li>Custom content management area for information on board meetings</li>
<li>Events calendar</li>
<li>Site navigation and organization consulting</li>
</ul>

<h3>About The Project:</h3>
<p>Worksighted is right next door and we work with them on a regular basis to keep their website up-to-date and evolving.

<h3>Key Features:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Custom Layout Design</li>
<li>Custom Content Management System (CMS)</li>
<li>Google Maps geolocation integration</li>
<li>Customer contact integration</li>
