Website Design:

The Mindarie Regional Council's website offers a minimalistic design with white backgrounds and splashes of vibrant colours to break up content areas. The design makes use of the soft tones seen in the Council’s brand style guide such as toned-down yellows, greens and purples and blues to create an elegant and modern website aesthetic. The website's design is not only visually appealing but also thoughtfully optimised for an enhanced user experience that clearly communicates the Councils key services and deliverables to the community.

Website Development:

Market Creations Agency's development team crafted a user-friendly and technically robust website for the Mindarie Regional Council. The website's architecture ensures seamless navigation and effortless access to vital information. The homepage features a dynamic image rotator, and strategic content areas that promote the Councils REUSE Shop and Drop Off Centre. Users are also granted the ability to subscribe for notification alerts if they wish to be informed via email when new content has been added to certain areas of the website. This is achieved through one of our new modules, the Content Notifications module.

Modules & Features:

The Mindarie Regional Council's website offers a variety of captivating features, made possible by our dynamic Spark CMS. The homepage introduces an intuitive mega menu and quick links section, expediting content discovery. As visitors explore the website, they encounter a seamlessly integrated latest news feed, showcasing real-time updates and fostering interactive engagement. The commitment to inclusivity is evident through the implementation of WCAG compliant accessibility controls, enabling users to personalise their browsing experience.

Employment Module

The MRC makes use of the SparkCMS Employment Module to list current job vacancies directly on their website. With this module enabled, website visitors can browse a list of available positions and apply directly online with a dynamic form that capture application data and attachments. The shire can also choose to redirect their job applicants to a third party platform like SEEK or Indeed and use the module purely as a secondary source of advertising their listings in a professional and cost effective way.
