More Improvements Made To County Website

More improvements have been made to the Potter County website, aimed at making county services more convenient for the public while improving efficiencies with the county government. Most recently, Potter County Director of Elections Sandy Lewis has added critical information to her department’s web page, containing information and forms related to Pennsylvania’s new Voter ID law. Also, the Potter County Board of Auditors has posted its full report on county financial records from 2011 on the website. Another recent edition is archived minutes from business meetings of the Potter County Board of Commissioners. Links to information on benefits and other services for military veterans have recently been added (click on  Veterans Affairs). Also, eligible organizations can now download applications for Small Games of Chance licenses from the site (click on Treasurer’s Office).

The site is available at pottercountypa.net (specific pages can be found under a “Departments” on the landing page). Developed by the Potter County Commissioners, the site features conveniences for the public to purchase dog licenses, apply for homestead tax exemptions, obtain phone numbers and email addresses for to county and municipal officials, tap into the Landex system for remote access to deeds and land records and more. There’s also current and archived information on the county government and Potter County in general, as well as some interactive features.

Internet users are encouraged to bookmark the site on their home computers. The new site complements a separate web-based service for information from or about the county government, Potter County Today. Together, the two information services deliver timely information, updated on a daily basis, as well as connections to many other sources.
