 New City Website
At their Feb. 21 meeting, the City Council officially launched a new and improved Mendota Heights City website, MendotaHeightsMN.gov.
The new MendotaHeightsMN.gov features an inviting design capturing the spirit of Mendota Heights. The site has several new online tools, convenient navigation options and real time news and event information. A dynamic set of frequently asked questions also help users quickly find information.
The responsive new design is mobile-friendly, better meets the accessibility requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and can easily be translated into any language.
