 Help Us Redesign the Town of Harrison Website!

We’re excited to begin work on a brand-new website for the Town of Harrison—and we want to hear from you!

Your input will help guide the design, layout, and features of the new site to ensure it better serves the needs of our residents, staff, and visitors.

What to Expect:

  • Review four sample website templates.
  • Share your thoughts and preferences in a brief survey.
  • Provide feedback on all templates, or just the one you prefer—it’s entirely up to you!

Your responses will directly influence the look and functionality of the new site—even if your selected template isn’t chosen, your input will still help shape the final product.

🗓️ The survey is open until Monday, May 19, 2025.
