Thumbs up to revamped county website

Thumbs up: To DeKalb County for completing a much needed website revamp. Although the new site, still at www.dekalbcounty.org, does not have any new information, it is more thoughtfully laid out so that information and documents are easier to find. The new “I Want To ...” tab makes it easy to take action, from volunteering to registering to vote to reserving a forest preserve shelter. Links to financial information – such as labor contracts, vendor payments and audits – are helpful for citizen watchdogs keeping an eye on their government.
