City Seeks Residents to Join New Media Advisory Group 
EVANSTON, IL - Evanston City Manager Wally Bobkiewicz recently announced the creation of a new Media Advisory Group and is looking for residents who would be interested in serving as members to the group in a volunteer capacity to assist the City in its new media efforts.  
“The City of Evanston has had an award winning website for many years now and this year has added its presence to Facebook, You Tube and Twitter,” explained Bobkiewicz. “The City is looking for residents to advise the City on its efforts and help provide direction on new initiatives.  I hope that we can use the talents and insights of Evanston residents to help make our internet presence the leader among cities in the United States.”  Additionally, the City Manager maintains his own City blog, to help keep the residents of Evanston updated on the business of their local government.
New projects being considered by the City include increased use of video, making City information more transparent and easier to access as well as creating a customized web experience for individual residents.  
Interested individuals can send an e-mail to webmaster at cityofevanston.org or call the City Manager’s Office at 847/866-2936.  Those who are interested in serving on this voluntary advisory group should submit their interest by Friday December 4.
