Website & Web Services Feedback:

Other: Hi, Just a quick email to let you know about a link on your site which does not appear to be working. It's on this page: http://bloomington.in.gov/sections/viewSection.php?section_id=84 I'm getting an error message when I visit this link: http://www.fema.gov/areyouready/ We’ve put together a resource which I think would make a suitable replacement for the broken link - http://ammo.com/articles/why-prepare-for-a-disaster. It covers subjects such as why you should plan, what a disaster supply kit should contain and the different types of disasters; manmade and natural. All the best Sam

Most tickets of this type should be closed within 2 days, although some cases may be longer. 5 days have already passed.

Found the content that was originally linked at a new address on FEMA's website, and updated the link so it isn't broken.

Hello Sam, I'm Dan Hiester, the Webmaster for the City of Bloomington. I'm responding to the feedback you sent about the broken link on our Emergency Preparedness page. I found the broken link you were talking about. It appears FEMA has re-organized their website since the last time we've updated this page. I have searched for the content in question, and found it at another address. I appreciate that you offered a helpful suggestion for an alternate link, but I'm afraid I will decline your suggestion. Generally speaking, we only link to resources from projects that have an official affiliation with the City of Bloomington, or a government authority. Thank you for sending us your report! It helped me fix the broken link you reported, and a couple of other links, as well. Warm regards, Dan Hiester Webmaster, City of Bloomington
