Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Baxter lacks a documented, entity-specific Emergency Operations Plan and has no confirmed standalone mass notification capability, relying instead on a countywide alert system without clear contractual coverage. Exposure to severe weather events and unresolved preparedness gaps elevate operational and public safety risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
An active FEMA-aligned emergency management priority and existing county interlocal relationships create a near-term entry point for coordinated preparedness investment. Addressing these gaps now positions Baxter to strengthen continuity planning, reduce liability exposure, and align with the upcoming fiscal cycle before weather season escalates risk.

Discuss this project →Municipal Web & Document Accessibility Remediation
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Baxter's municipal website and digital content must meet WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA standards by April 26, 2028, with PDF and document accessibility gaps explicitly identified. The current web platform remains unassessed, leaving the full scope of remediation unknown and increasing compliance risk.
The opportunity
The fixed 2028 deadline creates a defined planning horizon, making phased remediation both feasible and fiscally manageable across budget cycles. Early action reduces last-minute costs, supports equitable public access, and positions the municipality ahead of enforcement risk.
Police Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Upgrade
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department operates take-home police vehicles with no dash-camera or telematics system in place, creating gaps in officer accountability, driver behavior monitoring, and incident documentation. Active vehicle procurement is underway without a fleet management framework to support it, increasing operational and liability risk.
The opportunity
Current vehicle procurement creates a natural, low-disruption integration point for telematics adoption with no incumbent system to displace. Acting within this procurement cycle avoids retrofitting costs and positions the department for improved accountability, incident documentation, and long-term fleet stewardship.
