In this article the analysis of problems of an information openness of authorities at the municipal level is carried out, the results of examination of conformity of local government’s Internet resources in the Perm region to the requirements of the legislation of Russian Federation and also the results of poll of experts about problems of informing of citizens through sites are represented. Some recommendations on the decision of the revealed problems are offered. This research is carried out through an example of Internet sites of administrations in four small municipal areas of the Perm region: Kizelovsky (population of 32,2 thousand persons), Kosinsky – the Far North equal territory (7,9 thousand persons), Ohansky (17 thousand persons), Suksunsky (20,8 thousand persons). It is shown, which positions of the federal law «About providing the access to the information on activity of state structures and local governments» from 2/9/2009 №8-FZ are not realized in practice or realized not in full by administrations of areas. The reasons of organizational character complexities in performance of the given legislative requirements by municipal employees are formulated. Also the low level of legal literacy of experts of local governments is revealed and the requirement for maintenance of the access to the legislation and training skills of work with information-legal systems "Advisers", "Guarantor" or "Code" for them is fixed. As a whole it is proved that access guarantees to the information resources of authorities, in particular local government, in practice get declarative character. It demands working out of more effective mechanism of their realization. The absence of such a kind of mechanism attracts formation of essential backlog in an information openness of local authorities and in introduction of modern ways of informing of the population in small municipal areas. Some recommendations about the decision of the revealed problems are offered. Besides, it is described, how the project of the World bank «Expansion of an openness and civil activity at local level (2010-2011)» for stimulation of realization of legislative guarantees of interaction of local governments with the population in the Perm region had been realized by the ombudsman in Perm region.
