Coral Springs launches Rumor Has It webpage to provide residents with accurate information and fight the spread of misinformation
Coral Springs, Florida – In an effort to combat the rapid spread of misinformation and provide residents with a reliable source of information, the City of Coral Springs has launched a new webpage titled “Rumor Has It.” The initiative is designed to address rumors, clarify inaccuracies, and ensure that residents have access to timely, verified facts about topics circulating in the community.
The “Rumor Has It” webpage acts as a centralized hub where residents can explore current issues the city is addressing and submit questions or rumors they want clarified. By providing a direct line of communication between the city and the public, officials hope to prevent misinformation from spreading and reduce confusion within the community.
“By addressing issues directly, the city aims to reduce confusion, prevent the spread of false information, and strengthen trust through open, proactive communication,” said City Manager Catherine Givens. She emphasized that the webpage reflects Coral Springs’ commitment to transparency and accountability, particularly in a digital age where information travels quickly and is not always accurate.
The new platform encourages residents to actively participate in the process. People can submit rumors, questions, or concerns directly through the webpage, allowing city officials to respond to topics that are most relevant to the community. This feedback mechanism ensures that residents are not only informed but also have a voice in clarifying issues that affect them.
City leaders also stress that the webpage will continually update with new content, addressing rumors as they arise and providing explanations that are clear and easy to understand. By making this information accessible online, the city hopes to foster an informed community where residents feel confident in the accuracy of the information they receive.
Coral Springs’ launch of “Rumor Has It” comes at a time when misinformation has become a growing concern nationwide. Social media and online platforms allow content to spread rapidly, and without reliable sources, rumors can create confusion or anxiety among residents. The city’s proactive approach demonstrates a commitment to keeping the public informed and engaged while maintaining transparency in governance.
Residents interested in visiting the page or submitting a rumor can do so by going to CoralSprings.gov/rumors. The city encourages everyone to explore the platform, review topics already addressed, and submit any questions or rumors for verification. By fostering open communication and providing a trusted resource, Coral Springs aims to build a stronger, more informed community.
The “Rumor Has It” initiative represents more than a simple webpage—it is part of a larger effort by the City of Coral Springs to strengthen public trust, encourage civic engagement, and ensure that accurate information is readily available to all residents.
