[edit] Website evaluation

Main article: Evaluation of Louisiana parish websites

[edit] The good

  • Livingston provides a list of its parish council members, but it does not list each member's contact information individually; it instead gives one set of contact information for the entire council.[1]
  • Meeting minutes and agendas are archived back to 1996.[2]
  • Zoning and permit information is included. [3]

[edit] The bad

  • Budget information no longer featured on the website.
  • Administrative officials are not listed.
  • The Clerk of Court website offers a public records search online, but charges $50.00 per search account.[4]
  • No information is provided about how parish residents can request access to public documents of the parish under Louisiana's sunshine laws.
  • Parish audits, lobbying, and contracts are not online.
  • To compare Livingston with other Louisiana parishes, see Websites of the Louisiana parishes.
