I own this web site and I control what goes on it.<br /><br />I have been asked by the city, and I would do it anyhow, to do anything I can to keep the public updated in cases such as storms. I see it as a public service.<br /><br />The city does have an email notification system that you can sign up on, and many have. I would recommend it. The electronic notifications that go out from there are directly from the city.<br /><br />As to blogging, I requested, in the last year, for the City Commission to consider numerous ways to involve ourselves in Social Media, i.e., blogging, Facebook, Twitter, etc. Instead they created a policy of not allowing the city to promote any form of Social Media that allow two way communication since it causes problems with the Public Records Law and other concerns. The opposite of what I was trying to do. <br /><br />I think I might have wrote about this on this web site. That is one of the reasons I maintain my own web site since the City would not allow me to do exactly what we are doing here.<br /><br />Even so, while still limited, this web site daily has numerous hits. People are reading it.eLauderhill Newshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13747981737769628897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19748561.post-92209565279508483362012-08-28T23:03:24.815-04:002012-08-28T23:03:24.815-04:00Thank you for the update.

But, if the problem is as diverse as you state, you might need a larger platform...otherwise...people are going to think that Lauderhill can't get its act together.<br /><br />Additionally, it took me 2 days of searching to find this blog. Why don't you blog on the lauderhill.gov website? That would be a great place to provide information about ... lauderhill....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19748561.post-75612228226784252732012-08-28T14:15:41.735-04:002012-08-28T14:15:41.735-04:00Tropical storm Irene??Tropical storm Irene??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
