NEW GEPD Official Board Blog

In a move to increase transparency at the Glen Ellyn Park District, the Board of Commissioners has created a blog with an RSS feed that allows the public to subscribe and receive regular updates on board business.

The blog will contain meeting notices, links to agendas, packets and minutes, and highlights of meetings posted soon after each meeting. Material that is distributed during the meeting that was not in the packet, and presentations that were made in the meeting will also be available at the board blog.

Visit the blog and enter your email address in the box at the top right corner to receive regular updates about the GEPD Board.

In addition to having its own unique address, the blog is also embedded on the Park District Website. People looking for it on the Park District Website can find it under the board & staff drop-down menu on the home page. The GEPD Board Blog is maintained and written by GEPD staff.

A board priority, the blog is the first step in increasing transparency. Efforts will continue in 2012 when public meetings begin streaming live and are available later on demand on the Park District Website.
