City Website Redesign

Why a redesign?

The City of Sacramento's previous website was well-received, but at nearly 10 years old was beginning to show its age. A redesign gave us the opportunity to modernize the site's technology, improve our user experience, and increase security.

During the project's ramp-up phase we surveyed Sacramento's residents regarding their preferences and points of friction they encountered with our prior site. We also performed a public study in which Sacramento residents identified semantic relationships in the topics we cover, helping us to increase the site's ease of use.

Our new website is the direct result of our users' input and feedback.

What to expect

As we transition from one website to another, our visitors will find some pages on the old website while others will be on the new website. A visitor on the new site attempting to visit a page which still exists on the old website will automatically be redirected there, and vice versa. The two websites will act like one site with two designs. We hope to make this intermediate stage as seamless as possible.

More pages will be moved to the new website over the coming months until we have fully migrated to the new website, at which point the old website will shut down.

Our visitors will likely encounter some bugs on the new website as is inevitable with newly-launched software products. We will identify and correct these as quickly as possible until all have been fixed.

New website features

Our new website improves on our prior one in many ways. Highlights include:

Easier to find pages with new topic-based navigation system
More secure (".gov" domain, https-only)
Faster, more efficient code
Better accessibility with third-party auditing
Improved mobile-friendliness

What's next

Our team will continue developing new features and fixing bugs in parallel with our migration from the prior site.

We hold this website to the highest standard of quality and plan to deliver the best experience possible for Sacramento residents.

We hope you enjoy using our website!
