Description

The City/Mayor's office needs to keep the website updated, and remove the fluff.

For example:

On Oct 17th: "As Columbus Day approaches...." days *after* Columbus day.

The new "The mayor wants you to know" feature. Today, Oct 17th:
"Mayor Toni Harp thought you should know:
"the 1940s and 1950s saw some big names in the entertainment industry, with several plays debuting at the Shubert Theater. Among these were the premieres of Annie Get Your Gun with Ethel Merman, A Raisin in the Sun with Sidney Poitier, and Gigi with Audrey Hepburn."

Really, this is what the mayor wants us to know? How about an update on Ebola, or even street sweeping?

If Ebola shouldn't be prominently displayed on the website, how about at least posting a press release?

OR how about de-cluttering the website and having an "Urgent News" today button that mentions information relevant to residents lives, such as snow plowing, street sweeping, or any other time-sensitive event.
