Question: What has helpful phone numbers, links, a calendar and plenty of room for expansion?
Answer: Clarkston’s brand-new website.
The site, up and running at www.villageofclarkston.com, came as a one-year gift from an anonymous donor in honor of the city’s 175th anniversary, said City Councilman Cory Johnston.
The site is still under construction, but currently features links to the Clarkston Historical Society, Chamber of Commerce, and both Michigan and Oakland County government sites.
Developers also hope to add additional content soon, including photos, articles, maps and meeting minutes.
Currently, the site is privately managed, said Johnston, but after the first year, it will be turned over and the city will assume maintenance and operation costs.
