City to debut new website

An overhaul is in the works for Homewood's city website, Ward 5 Representative Peter Wright announced at the Dec. 21 city council meeting.

The city has been working with Brian Wallace, who also designed and manages the Birmingham City Council's website. Wright said that the design needs final approval from the city, but he expects it to go public in a week to 10 days.

He said the new website will have a more modern feel and better organization of information.

"It's very exciting," Wright said. "[Wallace is] exceeding our expectations on this website."
