RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that City Council approve the Ordinance authorizing an Intergovernmental Agreement between City of Englewood and Englewood Public Schools pertaining to the hosting of Englewood Public School's web site. • BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED • The City of Englewood has maintained a World Wide Web site since January 1997. This tool has allowed the City to provide updated information to the citizens of the City and positively market itself to the rest of the world. Since implementation, we have had over 90,000 visits to the City's web site. Englewood Public Schools has approached the City with an interest in collaborating with the City to host the web site of the Schools. This would require very little staff time on the City's part to provide. Benefits of this project would include positive PR for the City and allow the Schools to bring their organization into the Internet era. As the City would not be providing dial-up or dedicated access to the Internet for the Schools, content filtering of inappropriate sites will not be an issue. FINANCIAL IMPACT The revenue generated by this collaboration will offset the cost of existing equipment. No additional equipment or staff will be required. Estimated 1999 revenue -$250.00.
