Released Enhancements
Poppins Font Added for Municipal Branding and Accessibility
To support municipal branding and accessibility needs, the “Poppins” font has been added to Agenda and Meeting Management Select. This enhancement allows clerks, such as those from the City of Yachats, to create agendas, minutes, and Public Portal content consistent with city style guides while maintaining WCAG 2.2 compliance.
Key Font Enhancements
Poppins Font Availability: Added to the Agenda and Meeting Management Select font library. Can be used in all Froala-supported templates (agendas, minutes, and packets) and Public Portal displays.
Font Weights: Includes Regular (400) and Bold (700) for optimal readability across mobile and desktop.
Accessibility Compliance: Verified Poppins contrast ratios meet or exceed WCAG 2.2 AA standards against Agenda and Meeting Management Select default backgrounds.
Cross-Platform Consistency: Ensures stable rendering in Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox, across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
PDF and Template Stability: Generated PDFs preserve the Poppins font without substitution. No regressions to other existing fonts or templates.
Open License Use: Implemented under the SIL Open Font License for unrestricted municipal use.
Enhancement Expectations
Clerks and staff can now use Poppins to ensure their public documents and digital meeting materials align with official city branding and accessibility standards.
Improved Phrase Search Consistency Between Global and PDF Searches
The Agenda and Meeting Management Select Public Portal now provides a consistent and intuitive search experience by intelligently handling quotation marks between the global search and in-document PDF search. This enhancement ensures residents and clerks can reliably locate specific phrases across all published documents without confusion or manual adjustments.
Key Search Enhancements
Smart Quotation Handling: Quotation marks are automatically removed when a phrase (for example, “Oak Walker Holding”) is passed from the global search to the PDF viewer. This ensures accurate in-document results.
Consistent Global Search Behavior: Quotation marks continue to function normally for exact phrase matching in the global Public Portal search.
Seamless PDF Search Experience: Users no longer need to manually delete quotes from the PDF search field for results to appear.
Universal Application: Works across all supported document types and device views (desktop and mobile).
Accessibility and Usability: Improves clarity and usability for public users unfamiliar with advanced search syntax.
Search Expectations
Public Portal users can now perform quoted phrase searches confidently. They will see consistent, accurate results across both the global and PDF-level searches without any extra steps.
Terminology Update: “Citizen” Replaced with “Resident” Across Agenda and Meeting Management Select
To better reflect inclusive and community-preferred language, all instances of the term “Citizen” have been replaced with “Resident” within Agenda and Meeting Management Select. This update aligns the platform’s terminology with municipal standards and fosters consistency across the user experience in both administrative and public-facing interfaces.
Key Terminology Enhancements
Terminology Replacement: All user-facing instances of “Citizen” have been updated to “Resident,” including:
Public Portal menus, headings, and buttons
Events and subscriptions interfaces
Reports, exports, and templates
Email notifications and in-app messages
Data Integrity Maintained: Database keys, API endpoints, and historical records remain unchanged. This preserves existing integrations and report accuracy.
Comprehensive Audit: All known occurrences of “Citizen” across documentation and UI components were reviewed and updated for consistency.
Terminology Expectations
Municipal clerks, staff, and residents will now see “Resident” terminology throughout Agenda and Meeting Management Select. This ensures the platform reflects the inclusive language and communication standards of the communities it serves.
