The City of Carlsbad Has a New Website

The City of Carlsbad California has a new website. And it's pretty impressive.

As part of their modernization program in information technology, in order to save money (by reducing the amount of mail, for one thing), to reduce the amount of paper used, and increase efficiency for the City, the City of Carlsbad's new website holds a wealth of information for residents and visitors, and allows folks to performs a number of on-line functions that previously were handled via mail.

The City of Carlsbad's new website provides access to all City of Carlsbad departments and a wealth of subcategories with more information that you probably want or need. I'm still discovering all that the City of Carlsbad new web site offers me and other residents.

• In the Building Department, for example, you can research permits, access building codes, search for applications, and learn more about the process for getting a building permit for either residential or commercial construction

• Under Street and Traffic Services if you want information about street lights, the street sweeping schedule in your neighborhood, or storm drain maintenance, among other traffic and street related issues, you got it.

• Do you need information about utilities, such as setting up service, the water, sewer, recycling or trash service rates? It's there too. Plus you can set up an automated billing system for your water, sewer, and trash services. You can access ytour account here.

• The Parks and Recreation Department has a wealth of information on events and activities, trails, parking, recreation, classes and camps, youth sports league, activities for adult and seniors, and much more

• In the event of a disaster, or potential, and perhaps more importantly just to know, the City of Carlsbad's Emergency Preparedness Office provides details about the procedures they can implement when needed, as well as a wealth of resources for area residents in the event of a disaster such as fires

• Need maps or directions? You can research the locations of the police, fire, the two library, admin offices and more, with printable directions. And the ezoning mapping provides details about zoning and other information on parcels in Carlsbad

I could go on and on, but why not check out the City of Carlsbad's new website for yourself. With so many folks on-line, having a new website for Carlsbad is an efficient way to disseminate information to residents and visitors.

This is a terrific resource for residents, but I find it useful for sharing with folks who are considering a relocation to Carlsbad as part of my relocation services. You can even read about Carlsbad's history and obtain updates on Carlsbad demographics.
