Lake Parsippany Property Owners Association (LPPOA)

Asa community volunteer and member, in 2005 I volunteered to help redesign the existing Lake Parsippany Property Owners Association (LPPOA) website.

Challenges

From a design perspective, the legacy LPPOA site was rudimentary and didn't quite fulfill the organization's needs. over the course of several meetings, it soon became clear that they needed a manageable platform that would allow them to:

  • Support the existing membership with self-service info
  • Build new membership
  • Market the Clubhouse

In addition, the new site should offer a more attractive look, be easy to use, and be easily maintained by volunteer members.

Solutions

We put together a set of simple, clean, easy-to-manage page templates that could be maintained & updated by non-professional volunteers.

We reorganized the site into a consistent, simple site map.

We provided implementation guidance to the volunteer members.

The newly redesigned site went live in a a matter of a few months and has been operating successfully ever since.

Skills & Techniques : Dreamweaver, navigation structure, workflow, templates, membership-oriented, information retrieval, "customer self-service" & "publishing" site

This was a relatively lean engagement that focused on making the LPPOA self sufficient as soon as possible.
