Website Development

“When I open the website, I want to see my community.”

We’ve heard you, and we are working to improve squamish.net to reflect our diverse community and your individual needs. That’s why we’ve partnered with a creative agency to help us revitalize our website to improve representation, access and general usability.

Help us enhance your experience on the website – It has been and continues to be important for us to hear from our diverse community, including Members in Squamish Valley, Members living away from community and Members of all ages. Learn more about how you can get involved in the process.

We're Listening

During this process we’ve talked to many of you through both in person and online events including engagements sessions in February 2023 at the North Vancouver Elder’s Centre, Totem Hall and via Zoom. We’ve also heard from Members one-on-one both through conversations online and at the June Department Open Houses.

What we’ve heard so far:

  • You most often use the website to access form and resources, contact information, newsletters, event information, job postings, and Council information.
  • You want to see our Sḵwx̱wú7mesh people equally reflected throughout our website. We are one community, regardless of where we live.
  • It is important to authentically communicate who we are to others who are visiting our website.
  • Improved accessibility throughout the website is important to you.
  • Clear and concise information that’s easy to understand.
