The city of Glen Dale announced its newly redesigned logo and website at a special press conference prior to the council meeting on Monday evening.

City officials stated that the new website features streamlined navigation, a more modern look and feel, and a new tool kit for residents. The tool kit allows residents to report an issue or submit a request as well as several other features.

“The website is designed to be extremely user-friendly and will serve as the main resource for residents to obtain information,” said Glen Dale Mayor Janet Scott. “New features include online bill pay, fillable online forms, signing up for text alerts, a community calendar, and more.”

In addition to the new website, the city logo was redesigned, and a new color scheme of gold and blue has been adopted.

“Our logo had not been updated in several decades, we think since the 1980’s,” said Scott. “It needed a refresh, and we feel the new look and vibrant colors project an image of a modern, progressive city that is on the rise.

“Glen Dale is a great place to visit, live, or open a business, with some of the friendliest and most welcoming people you’ll find anywhere,” Scott added. “And we want to spread that message far and wide.”
