Summary/Abstract: Official city websites are the basic source of information about the city. Web technologies are a resource for improving the activities of municipal authorities in the field of urban planning. This resource allows receiving and processing huge amounts of information, interacting with the city community and creating a more effective management system. Improvement of the management system in urban development activities increases the quality of life of citizens as well as investment attractiveness. The study is devoted to the development of a methodology for evaluating the websites of the authorities responsible for urban planning. The proposed method was tested when evaluating the current state of websites in the field of urban management based on the analysis of several dozen of major cities in Russia. According to the methodology the levels of effectiveness of the sites of the city planning authorities were determined. Recommendations for the improvement and development of web technologies as a resource in the field of urban planning were proposed in the paper.
