New Webmaster, New Website in Washington Twp.

Less than two months after Washington Township , the municipality’s online presence has undergone a radical facelift.

The new Webmaster, Scott Gaskill, has redesigned the site to feature town announcements, events and messages from the Twitter feed. Gaskill, the Information Technology director for Mt. Olive Township, is under contract with Washington Township through his private business.

Highlights of the redesigned site include a map of Washington Township noting specific businesses, parks, and municipal buildings, as well as archived and recent Eagle and Gold Award projects from the Boys and Girls Scout troops in town.

Staples from previous iterations of the site remain, such as contact information for committees and departments in town as well as calendar of upcoming municipal meetings.

, leaving Ray Kenny as the sole, full time department member.

The move was made by the township committee to save costs, and committeeman Tracy Tobin stated the municipality would save $300,000 over the next five years by making the move.

Gaskill’s contract took effect Aug. 1, and includes the oversight of Califon Borough’s website.
