Web Site Design for NHERA

Norton Hills Recreation Association Inc. (NHERA) is a neighborhood residents' association in West Michigan.

As members of the association, we proposed that a Web site would benefit current residents, potential residents, and the association itself by promoting the area as a great place to live, improving communication among residents, and cutting costs by centralizing document storage and reducing paper mailings.

 

NHERA's main goals for a Web site were:

  • A place to share association news.
  • A place to store important documents (bylaws, rules and regulations, etc.) where they would be easily accessible to residents and potential residents.
  • E-mail forwarding so that we could have permanent e-mail addresses for association officers.
 Our Design for NHERA

We met NHERA's goals by:

  • Securing a domain name and hosting service.
  • Designing a site that provides easy access to neighborhood news and association documents.
  • Establishing e-mail forwarding accounts using the new domain, ensuring that the address "president@nhera.org", for instance, will always go to the current president.
 

We exceeded NHERA's goals by:

  • Scanning printed copies of association documents, using optical character recognition to produce editable electronic versions of them for the first time.
