Facing challenges of modern communication, Commercial Point, OH leaders sought an alternative to traditional social media platforms. After discovering GOGov’s Citizen Notifications, they found the ideal way to communicate directly with residents, launching “Commercial Point Connect” to keep everyone updated on council meetings, road closures, and events

Thanksgiving is around the corner, and for many local governments, it’s a key time to ensure residents are informed and connected. From parade routes and trash pickup delays to holiday closures, clear communication keeps your community running smoothly and helps residents plan their holiday week. With a municipality-branded mobile app and citizen notifications, you can deliver timely updates, ensuring your messages cut through the holiday hustle and reach residents directly.

When local governments consider adopting new technology, a common myth often comes up: “Senior citizens aren’t interested in mobile apps or digital notifications.” In reality, older citizens not only use mobile devices, but they also appreciate the convenience, immediacy, and reliability that mobile apps bring—especially when it comes to staying connected with their communities.
