The new Mariemont.org website sponsored by Village Government and launched several months ago is an improvement from the earlier one. Curiously, it copies some of the features of Mariemont.com including the FrontPage slider of photographs and calendar of events. The business directory is limited to those entities within the boundaries of Mariemont.
What is missing is a posting of the current or up to date minutes from the numerous Counsel Committees (Finance, Health and Recreation, Planning and Zoning, Public Works and Safety, Rules and Regulation). Moreover, the minutes from Council Meetings and Meetings of the Whole are posted but the icons are not dated making navigation to specific meetings difficult. There are many links to other Web sites but I was unable to identify a link to ICRC that videotapes all Council Meetings for Community Television (www.icrctv.com).
The web site has contracted with PayPal for residents to pay for fees such as tennis memberships and swimming passes, but it does not integrate with the tax office to electronically file and pay income taxes.
The Web site has a wealth of information but is quite generic with no platform for interactive information exchange within the Village. There is no blog. The Village is indebted, however, to Premier Internet www.premierinternet.com for their quality work.
