New Website Design for Riverhead Town

Residents are encouraged to utilize the site to reach out to local government.

Riverhead residents who want to send Town Supervisor Sean Walter an email can do so more easily, now that the town has just unveiled a brand new website redesign.

Dubbed the “Gateway to Town Hall,” the new site was revamped in order to better serve the public and to communicate more effectively with residents about services and events.

“Our new web presence will allow residents to keep in touch with, and interact with, their local government from their laptop or desktop, wherever they are, at any time of the day or night,” Walter said.

Much like its neighbors in Southampton Town, which also redesigned its website during the current administration, Riverhead Town’s new website sports enhanced features, a more user‐friendly design, sharpened graphics and ways for taxpayers to keep in touch with local officials.

Transparancy is key, said Walter. The supervisor thanked members of the town’s IT department, including Lori Pipczynski, for their hard work to facilitate the redesign process.

“I urge the public to take advantage of this new and improved gateway to Town Hall,” Walter said.

The Town’s new web address is townofriverheadny.gov. Those attempting to use the previous web address, riverheadli.com, will be temporarily redirected to the new site.

Residents should use the new web address and websites that contain links to the Town’s website should also be updated, Walter said.
