£23,000 to revamp site
COUNCIL bosses have invested £23,000 on a revamp of their website.
Tewkesbury Borough Council's new-look site will be launched tomorrow.

COUNCIL ONLINE: Audrey Ricks with the new website
The authority revealed that there would also be an annual £11,000 maintenance cost, mainly linked to completely new e-forms on the site.
It will have the same address as the council's old site, www.tewkesbury.gov.uk.
Sunday and Monday evenings £12.00 per head for an all inclusive meal with Indian and Thai cuisine (normal price £14.50).
Bring this voucher to the restaurant complete with your name and email address on it.
Terms: Expires 31st July
Contact: 01452 223782
Valid until: Wednesday, July 31 2013
There will be three separate tabs to cater for residents, businesses, and visitors. A fourth will give detailed information about the council.
The new site will enable future savings for the council as it expects more people to pay for services online.

“They have probably done this so that they can get rid of loads of staff. "No you can't see a member of staff about your problem, just visit the website instead, it is really good!"
Hey presto the taxpayer saves loads of money, but unfortunately unless you are web and computer savvy, the level of service you get will just get worse.”

“Be interesting to see if this one is kept up to date. Pity they didn't use the money instead to organise more bin collections at christmas. Quite sure the taxpayers would have preferred to get their rubbish taken away than have a facility that is usually out of date and they would hardly ever use.”

“I wonder who did the revamp?
I wouldn't have minded the job, I would have done it for £20k and only charged £10k a year for the 'Maintenance' fee.
Nice work if you can get it...”
