Let's just work on the principle that an administrator works two hours a day on maintaining the site on a generous wage of £10 per hour (within which I'll include the cost of the domain name per day) you could run a website for over 80 years.
Even if someone was employed full-time on a wage of £15,000 per year just to update it you could still keep it going for over 39 years for that price.
I'm disgusted with every councillor who voted in favour of this proposal, it is an absolute disgrace.

Oh dear, I wish I'd not brought out this particular mouldy old chesnut now.
