Coweta

County has jumped on board the information superhighway.

Public

information officer Tom Corker demonstrated the

capabilities of the county's new Web page to the Coweta

County Commission Tuesday morning.

The site,

at www.coweta.ga.us., features a wealth of information

for people who want to stay informed on happenings in the

county, Corker said.

While the

site is still under construction, interested viewers can

still find job postings and visit several of the county's

departments and actually download forms for inspections

or other official actions.

"This

will save residents at least one trip to this

building," Corker said.

Commission

chairman Lawrence Nelms wondered if this would be a good

resource to help the county comply with the newly changed

Open Records Act.

The law now

requires the county to furnish documents to residents

within three days, and county administrator Theron Gay

said the county is investigating the capabilities of its

Web site.

Other

interesting parts of the county's site include a weather

update and links to other local sites. One of the

departments included on the page is the county's

convention and visitor's bureau.

Visitors to

the site can obtain a wealth of information about the

county's attraction and history and decide whether to

make the county a stop on their trip to Georgia.

The Web

page also features news updates from the commission

meetings and agendas for future meetings.

"As

soon as I get the agenda, I'm posting it on the

Web," Corker said.

The

commissioners praised Corker's work on the site, and the

public information officer pledged to keep the county up

to date as more items are added to the site.
