E-government in Action
Town of Trenton
"In our town, we put every possible form, permit, and application on our Web site. We did this so our citizens and businesses can save themselves trips to the clerk's office. Forms for copies of birth, death, and marriage certificates, and zoning plans, site plan review, dog licenses, disabled parking, swimming lessons, and part time town jobs are now available at the click of a button.
Before the forms were on our site, people had to come to the clerk's office when it was open - which was only part-time. Now, citizens and businesses can download a form, fill it out, attach payment, and mail it in --whenever it is convenient for them. Our site makes this information available to people 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and that's just better government."
