By way of background on our town's costly new web site: before the Council ever actually voted on a resolution to award a contract for a new Borough web site - and, if one reviews the minutes, apparently without any analysis or discussion by our governing body of any alternatives or calling for any compteting or alternate bids or proposals - Mayor Matt McHale of Dumont was already announcing in his "State of the Borough" address given at the reorganization meeting on January 3: "Initially in 2008, the Borough of Dumont will focus on . . . [i]mplementing a web-based interactive system known as C-3 that will allow the Borough to engage our residents through telecommunications such as text message, emails, and voicemails." At no time in any of the meeting minutes was this "web-based interactive system" ever referred to as a "web site", until it was revealed on May 29 that Dumont taxpayers will now be paying $1,500.00 a month for what is basically a new web site with additional features and functionality . . . but still a web site.
