At 10 a.m. on this day, the city held a kickoff meeting for the "Seongnam City Official Website Full Revamp Project" at Yuldong Hall on the 2nd floor of City Hall, where it discussed the direction and detailed implementation plans for the project.

This overhaul is being carried out to provide high-quality, citizen-centered digital administrative services in line with changes in the information technology (IT) environment. It is the first major update in 11 years since the previous revamp in February 2015.

The city plans to redesign the information structure of the website from the perspective of its citizens.

To achieve this, the city will integrate frequently used services such as online civil complaints, the reporting center, and application features under a unified "Communication and Participation" menu, placing them prominently on the homepage.

Various reservation and application channels for citizen events will also be consolidated, and an artificial intelligence (AI) search function will be introduced.

The main page and detailed menu screens will feature an intuitive design that reflects the latest trends in information and communication technology, enhancing both information accessibility and user convenience.

In addition, the city will standardize integration methods and strengthen management of linked information to ensure a stable internet access environment.

Feedback from an online citizen survey conducted from February 10 to 19 regarding the website revamp?such as simplifying menu access steps and adjusting font sizes?will also be incorporated.

A Seongnam City official stated, "The newly launched city website will be transformed to focus on citizens," adding, "It will become a gateway for quickly and easily accessing all information about Seongnam City, thereby expanding citizen communication and participation."
