911 Dispatch & EOC Infrastructure Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Lincoln County is actively constructing a new 911 Dispatch Center and Emergency Operations Center, targeting completion by December 2025. Identified gaps in emergency notification systems and the absence of documented after-action reviews elevate operational risk during the transition to modernized infrastructure.
The opportunity
The December 2025 completion deadline creates an immediate window to align complementary technology investments with the county's expanded FY 2026–2027 budget and dedicated emergency management IT appropriations. State safety grant funding already awarded to county emergency services further supports this modernization effort.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's current mass notification system operates under an unknown vendor and undocumented contract, creating consolidation risk alongside a newly built EOC and recently approved five-year EOP. The absence of documented after-action reviews for recent incidents, including a severe winter storm, signals gaps in integrated notification and response workflows.
The opportunity
An expanded FY 2026–2027 county budget and an active state safety grant for emergency services create a timely funding pathway. Aligning notification modernization with the EOC build-out and approved EOP now reduces operational fragmentation and strengthens coordinated public response before the next severe weather season.

Fleet Safety · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The county currently lacks documented telematics infrastructure and fleet-wide camera coverage, leaving high-risk vehicles such as those operated by the Sheriff's Office without active monitoring. An alleged speeding complaint has surfaced, highlighting a moderate but addressable safety and liability exposure for the county.
The opportunity
A FY 2026 federal grant program with a September 2026 deadline presents a potential funding path for fleet safety technology, pending eligibility confirmation. Launching a pilot on high-risk vehicles now positions the county for a broader rollout while demonstrating responsible stewardship of public safety resources.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Readiness
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks documented endpoint compliance, creating gaps in device visibility and IT oversight across a growing technology footprint. Without structured endpoint management, latent security and operational risks remain unaddressed despite a dedicated annual IT and software spend of over $184,000.
The opportunity
The county's significantly increased FY 2026–2027 budget and active IT modernization tied to EOC buildout create a timely opening to address endpoint oversight. Proactively closing this gap supports operational continuity, reduces audit exposure, and positions the county for future compliance requirements.
