City of Van Alstyne, TX
The Challenge
Van Alstyne is one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas. Its population has more than doubled in just a few years, putting increasing pressure on city services, staff workload, and the city's ability to communicate with a rapidly expanding resident base. The city's previous website had not kept pace with that growth. It was outdated, difficult to navigate, and lacked the organized structure residents needed to find department information, access documents, and stay informed.
For a small city government managing explosive growth without a large IT team, maintaining and improving that site was not realistic. They needed a platform that could handle the volume of information a growing city requires while staying manageable for staff.
The Solution
Van Alstyne moved its website to Munibit. The transition gave the city a modern, organized platform with dedicated department pages, a structured document library for agendas and minutes, and accessibility support built in from day one. Munibit handled the setup and design so city staff could focus on content rather than construction.
The platform's readymade municipal structure meant Van Alstyne could launch quickly without waiting on a design agency or managing a lengthy development process.
