Modernize Emergency Operations Plan and Notification Infrastructure
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Henderson Police Department's Emergency Operations Plan is of unknown age and update status, creating critical preparedness gaps exposed by recent severe incidents including Winter Storm Fern and flooding events. Reliance on a county-managed mass notification system with unclear capabilities and uncertain contract status compounds operational and community safety risk.
The opportunity
Planned after-action reviews and an identified Emergency Preparedness Gap score of 80 signal strong near-term urgency, while stable public safety budget allocations provide a favorable fiscal environment. Consolidating fragmented emergency management capabilities now strengthens community resilience and positions the department ahead of the upcoming budget and planning cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The department relies on a county-managed notification system with unclear capabilities and uncertain contract status, limiting direct control over public and staff alerting during critical incidents. Recent severe weather events have exposed this operational vulnerability, making system review and enhancement an urgent public safety priority.
The opportunity
After-action reviews from recent incidents create a natural and time-sensitive forcing function to evaluate and strengthen alerting capabilities. With no competing solutions currently in place, procurement can move efficiently—including through cooperative purchasing vehicles—aligning well with current public safety budget allocations and operational planning cycles.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A federal mandate requires WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA compliance for public-facing digital properties by April 26, 2027. With no plan or technology currently in place, the city faces significant legal exposure and risk of excluding residents from essential online services.
The opportunity
The fixed 2027 deadline creates a defined window to stage implementation, manage costs, and reduce compliance risk before enforcement. Acting now allows the city to align this effort with upcoming fiscal planning cycles and protect equitable public access to digital services.
Strengthen Endpoint and Network Security Infrastructure
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
A formal cybersecurity policy has been adopted and budget has been approved for network and endpoint security investments, yet gaps remain in credential management and endpoint oversight. Without addressing these gaps, public safety operations and sensitive department data remain exposed to preventable risk.
The opportunity
Active budget allocation and executive-level policy adoption create a near-term procurement window aligned with current fiscal planning. Cooperative purchasing agreements offer a streamlined, compliant path to close security gaps and strengthen operational resilience across public safety functions.
