Luzerne County government’s redesigned website is now activated at www.luzernecounty.org.

County Manager C. David Pedri had planned a Wednesday morning conversion to the new site, but “technical difficulties” delayed the activation until around 5 p.m.

CivicPlus, based in Manhattan, Kansas, will be paid $41,250 annually for four years, or a total $165,000, for the redesign, hosting and maintenance, according to a contract approved last summer. The county will own the website and archived information when the contract ends in July 2021.

Pedri sought the redesign, saying the site created in 2005 was outdated.
