ABOUT

We created Connected Municipality to make the planning conversation easier.

The check-up tool and resources give municipal staff and decision-makers a practical way to assess their digital presence, explore possibilities and develop a shared understanding of what to do next.

WHY WE MADE IT

Seeing how the pieces fit

A municipality’s website is part of a wider network of information, services, community organizations and systems. The usefulness of that network depends on how well its parts connect.

A useful starting point is to understand what is already in place, then look for opportunities to build on existing investments, connect complementary tools and introduce capabilities that staff can manage and sustain.

For smaller towns and rural municipalities in particular, progress needs to fit available budgets, staff capacity and local priorities.

Information that’s hard to find
Garbage day is three menus deep.

A form that won’t work on a phone
Residents give up and call instead.

A notice nobody sees
The road closure is buried in the news page.

Problems like these rarely need a rebuild.

WHO WE ARE

Experience behind the connections

Connected Municipality is an initiative of Digital Fusion, drawing on more than 20 years of working with municipalities to improve how they communicate, serve and connect with their communities.

Our work spans municipal websites, community directories, tourism and events, investment attraction and mapping. Through these projects, we have seen how a municipality’s digital presence supports many responsibilities, often with limited staff and resources.

That experience informs both the resources we share here and the solutions we help municipalities plan and build.
