Web Hosting

General Overview
The Florida League of Cities has joined with the League of Minnesota Cities, the International City-County Management Association and GovOffice to offer the GovOffice Content Management System(GovOffice CMS), a powerful, state of the art Web site development tool for local governments.
Cities on the Web
GovOffice
GovOffice allows cities to build and maintain websites over the Internet - there's no software to install; only a computer, an Internet connection, and Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher are needed. The tool allows cities to choose from a wide array of functions and features, such as posting information on city services, publicizing community events, providing online forms for citizens to submit information, conducting online polls, etc.

In putting information on to city sites, staff who are familiar with Microsoft Word will be able to learn the administrative tools very easily - no specific programming language is needed, and training usually involves a one-hour call to the GovOffice Customer Service Center. City staff can also delegate authority to various staff members for making modifications to specific sections of the site, and can customize the site to have a unique "look and feel" that represents their community. All sites built through the city version of GovOffice.com will also be designed to ADA specifications, incorporating elements that allow those who are visually impaired to read the site using special software. The sites are hosted by Qwest through their relationship with GovOffice.com, and there is no limit on the number of pages cities can create on their sites.

GovOffice CMS was created to enable local governments of all sizes to communicate with their citizens over the Internet. Since its official launch, over 800 local governments in 42 states and two Canadian provinces - with populations of less than 200 to more than 250,000 - are using GovOffice CMS. Currently, there are more than 20 Florida entities using the product.
