Gwangsan District Council of Gwangju, Complete Overhaul of Website and Electronic Meeting Minutes System

Improving Accessibility to Resident Information

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Gwangsan District Council of Gwangju Metropolitan City has completely revamped its homepage and electronic meeting minutes system for the first time in 16 years, significantly enhancing residents' ease of access to information.

The Gwangsan District Council announced on the 10th that it has fully revamped the homepage and electronic meeting minutes system and began full-scale operation from the 7th.

This is the first overhaul in 16 years since the homepage and meeting minutes system were established in 2006. Due to the recent diversification of mobile platforms, the existing homepage was no longer suitable, leading to continuous demands for its renovation.

To this end, the council established a comprehensive plan to revamp the homepage and electronic meeting minutes system, adhering to web standard technology guidelines and enhancing accessibility so that users can obtain council materials more easily and quickly.

The revamped homepage, previously optimized for PCs, has been built as a ‘responsive web’ to allow access from various devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs.

New homepages for each committee were created, and frequently visited menus were placed on the main screen to improve convenience.

The electronic meeting minutes system’s search performance was enhanced to allow users to search under desired conditions, and the menu structure was changed so that 5-minute speeches and district administration questions by each council member can be checked.

Chairman Lee Young-hoon said, “This homepage renovation was made to improve residents’ ease of access to information and strengthen communication with the district council,” adding, “We will continue to expand content and improve services so that the homepage can serve as a true channel of communication.”
