Common Questions About This Government Intranet
What is this government intranet built with?
The design uses only standard SharePoint web parts – News, Events, Image, Image Gallery, and Text – combined with a custom theme, custom fonts, an extended header, flexible sections, and audience targeting. There is no custom code and there are no third-party tools anywhere on the page. It is the kind of clean, maintainable intranet Greg Zelfond builds for towns, cities, and other government organizations.
What’s included on the government intranet homepage?
The homepage includes a branded hero, a town news section for updates and regulatory notices, department links presented as visual cards for offices like the Clerk, Finance, Public Works, Parks and Rec, Police, and Fire, a town calendar with council meetings, public hearings, and community events, an employee spotlight, employee resources, quick links, a photo gallery, and a KPI dashboard tracking service requests and ongoing initiatives.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. Everything on this page is out-of-the-box SharePoint. That matters for a municipality: the intranet stays stable and secure, nothing breaks when Microsoft pushes updates, and a small IT team never has to maintain custom add-ons. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg builds – it keeps the intranet easy to own long after the project is done.
Can this design be customized for our town or agency?
Absolutely. The town seal, colors, fonts, department cards, and dashboard metrics are all tailored to your municipality. Greg adapts the layout to your departments and services – whether that is a small town hall with a handful of offices or a larger city with dozens – and structures the calendar around your council meetings, public hearings, and community events.
Will this government intranet work on mobile devices?
Yes. SharePoint pages are responsive by default, so the intranet works in a browser or the SharePoint mobile app on any phone or tablet. That helps municipal staff who are rarely at a desk – public works crews, inspectors, and parks staff can check news, the town calendar, and employee resources from the field.
Can Greg build this government intranet for our municipality?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box intranets like this one for towns, cities, and government agencies. He handles the design, structure, and rollout so your team gets a polished intranet without custom code. Reach out through the contact page to get started.
