Board documents, public notices, properties, incentives, projects, bids, and RFPs.

See An Example

One small city, three possible looks.

The Martin examples show how existing public information can become a cleaner, easier-to-use website. Each version uses the same content with a different style: traditional, modern, or community-forward.

Launch quickly. Maintain easily.

From outdated website to modern public record in as little as 10 business days.

Many small public-entity websites can be rebuilt quickly using the public information they already have. After launch, staff can send routine updates by email instead of logging into a CMS.

How It Works

From Inbox To Public Record

Staff keep doing what they already do. ClerkSite turns ordinary email updates into organized, accessible, searchable public information with provenance and review where risk calls for it.

  1. 01

    Email it

    Staff send an agenda, notice, minutes, form, alert, RFP, report, or update to the entity's ClerkSite address.

  2. 02

    ClerkSite checks it

    AI identifies the content, extracts dates and metadata, flags accessibility or policy risks, and preserves the original.

  3. 03

    The public finds it

    Approved updates reach the site, archive, calendar, search index, and audit log without staff learning a CMS.

Built For The Office's Actual Day

Your staff should not need to become the website department.

Small public entities do not need a big-city IT department, a complicated website editor, or another system for staff to learn. If staff can send an email, ClerkSite can help keep the public website current.

What staff can email

  • Meeting agendas
  • Meeting minutes
  • Public notices
  • Water and utility alerts
  • Forms and applications
  • Office hour changes
  • Election information
  • Ordinances and resolutions
  • Bids, RFPs, and procurement notices
  • Board and authority documents
  • Photos and community announcements

What ClerkSite handles

  • Publishing updates in the right section of the website
  • Formatting public information so it is easier to read on phones
  • Improving accessibility where possible without slowing the office down
  • Keeping original documents archived with a clearer publishing trail

The Before And After

From scattered pages to a public website people can actually use.

The problem is not that small public entities do not care. It is that public communication has been placed on offices with too little time, too few tools, and too much responsibility.

Before ClerkSite

  • Old PDFs scattered across the site
  • Outdated pages and missing notices
  • Residents and applicants calling the office for basic information
  • Website changes waiting on whoever knows the system

With ClerkSite

  • Current updates in the right place
  • Searchable documents and archived originals
  • Clear meeting, form, contact, and alert pages
  • A maintained public website staff can update by email

Starter Designs

One civic publishing package. Three design choices.

The $149/month package includes the same publishing workflow, document archive, calendar, accessibility-minded structure, and support. Each entity chooses a controlled visual direction and a module bundle that fits its public-information duties.

Traditional civic websites

Classic Town Hall

A familiar city-hall structure with clear departments, officials, meetings, documents, and contact information.

Open Classic Town Hall demo

Real Demo Content

The Martin examples use the same public data.

Each design uses existing Town of Martin information where available, then adds clearly implied publishing surfaces a ClerkSite customer could maintain: searchable archives, better service paths, structured notices, and a clearer calendar.

Existing public data

  • 3707 Historic Hwy 17, Martin, GA 30557
  • Monday and Wednesday, 12:00-5:00 PM
  • City Council meets on the third Monday of each month at 6:00 PM.
  • 381 residents, incorporated 1891

ClerkSite improvements shown

  • Resident task links for water service, records, and rentals
  • Document archive with readable titles and categories
  • Meeting and calendar summaries residents can scan quickly
  • Source notes that distinguish public data from demo improvements

ADA Readiness

Get ready before accessibility becomes urgent.

ClerkSite is designed to help public entities move toward applicable WCAG 2.1 AA web accessibility requirements through accessibility-aware publishing, original document preservation, approval trails, and audit logs.
