The Montgomery County Neighborhood Projects Website provides easy-to-use public access to current information about all major building capital improvement projects in Montgomery County. The home website provides a user-friendly interface which allows the user to see a list of the projects in various County neighborhoods by clicking on an interactive County map. In each neighborhood, the user can select from a list of projects such as fire stations, libraries, and recreation centers. Clicking on a specific project takes the user to the project webpage which provides at-a-glance information for general public use. The presented information includes; project description, design and/or construction status, project schedule, project presentation information such as floor plans, renderings, photographs, architect and contractor names, and departmental contact information. This information is presented and updated regularly to keep stakeholders informed of the building’s progress from the design phase through bidding and construction. Montgomery County currently has 28 projects on the website.
