Information Technology

The IT department is responsible for maintaining all computer software and hardware systems in use by the city to serve the citizens of Laurel. The department provides support for all IT needs of the different departments of the city including the police and fire departments, parks and recreation and public works departments, and the city’s administrative support staff.

The prime directive of the IT department is to provide each department with the current technology that it needs to implement projects and services. The IT department also works closely with each department to develop and design plans to address future needs and upgrades to maintain the efficiency of technology in the workplace. This allows each department to stay focused on the needs of the citizens and the continued growth of the City of Laurel.

The City of Laurel, established as a lumber town in 1882, is conveniently situated approximately two hours from larger destination cities such as Jackson, Biloxi, New Orleans, and Mobile. In recent years, the city has become a destination all its own thanks, in part, to its starring role in HGTV’s popular “Hometown” series. As Laurel, and interest in it, continues to grow, we are committed to providing the resources necessary to help all of our residents and businesses reach their full potential.
