I said NO SUCH THING.
I called mcmayor about gohammond.com, and that's the one I am concerned about.

Well if you are upset that the city council meetings are not on the city website, you have to be upset that ALL THE OTHER city department meetings are not on the site as well

You cannot pick and choose what should be on the site Freetime.

See you just proved that you do not give a crap about the website, just using it as an excuse to bash the mayor for no reason, like he told you on the radio the other day when you went apeshit on him

I certainly CAN choose what I think should be on gohammond.com.
Th civil city, NOT the school city, pays for gohammond. I believe the business of the civil city should be on the website it pays to operate.

the city doesnt have to have any websight at all if it doesnt want too. the gohammond site is strictly a venue for information and publicity for events and things the administration and various dept heads want to hi-light.

if the council wants to add to it. they can. till now they have chosen not too.

interestingly though...most city ordinances are researchable through that websight. so obviously the city administration has worked with other government offices (in this case the clerks office) to get that info posted.

so if the mayors staff has worked with golec.... your supposed messiah...i think then that its pretty clear that the same invitation is open to the council.

The Hammond ordinances went up on gohammond during the LAST administration.
And please don't presume who is MY messiah.
I can only assume that's how YOU feel, since I didn't say any such thing.
Better watch out, your patron may get upset with your traitorous statement.

go hammond did not even exist during the last administration! the old city site was useless and was ironically run by dennis terry's shell company! the go hammond site was created in the first year of the current administration!

hmdin.com WAS operating, and it DID contain the city ordinances. Ask Golec, I think he knows more about it than a street department laborer.
Escamilla DID register the name "gohammond.com" as his own in 2004.

did the dedelow administration post ordinances in 2003 that werent passed until 2007? how else do you explain ordinances from 2007 being accessable?

Here's the PROOF from the opening ordinance page:

Address:
City of Hammond
5925 Calumet Avenue
Hammond, IN 46320

Official website:
www.hmdin.com

DUH. That was the HAmmond website under Dedelow. Ray Escamilla registerd a new one, gohammond.com, under his own name when mcmayor came along in 2004.
Oracle tried to LIE about who started posting the city ordinances online. I knew it was under Dedelow, he claimed it was mcmayor.
THe above post proves that the codes were posted on the city's former website.

So if someone else started the website, how come they did not keep the domain registered?

Seems pretty stupid to let a domain name expire, especially if it can be used again in the future

And honestly, if I wanted to look up Hammonds website, I would assume it would be www.hammond.gov not www.hmdin.com, and besides www.hmdin.com sounds more like a porn site if you think about it, so I can see why McDermott changed it

The NAME is NOT the problem. THe lack of content is the problem. THey just changed the name. You can read many parts of gohammond that were lifted directly from the,mdin.com website. No problem with that either.
I don't care what mcmayor and his hired hand want to call it, although I'm not sure a private person should hold the registration for the publicly funded site.
I just want the citizens to get some useful information along with the mcmayoral PR we are now getting.
