 The Utah Legislature won the NCSL Online Democracy award for its Web site: http://www.le.utah.gov
The Utah Legislature Web site is recognized as best in the nation. The NCSL Online Democracy Award recognizes a state legislative Web site that stands out for making democracy user-friendly. The Utah Legislature Web site, the first Web site to receive this award, was selected for outstanding achievement in the use of design, content, and technology to bring democracy closer to the citizens of Utah. Of specific note is its use of RSS feeds and audio/video streaming of legislative activity. The design is simple and effective in user navigation. NCSL recognizes the Utah Legislature Web site as an example for other legislatures to follow in using Web technology to deliver public information to their constituents. Accepting the award at the 2005 NCSL Annual Meeting & Exhibition on behalf of the Utah Legislature were Mike Christensen, director, and Mark Allred, IT manager, both of the Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel.
Note: UtahPolitics.org writes: It really is a very good site and they’ve done a lot to add RSS, audio files of committee meetings, and other features that make it more usable. Congratulations!
