Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town has unverified EOP documentation, no municipal mass-notification platform, and relies heavily on county-level coordination for emergency response. These gaps in dedicated local preparedness infrastructure elevate operational risk for residents and staff during active hazard or emergency events.
The opportunity
With FY2026 budget discussions underway and ongoing strategic initiatives in hazard mitigation and regional EOC coordination, this is a timely moment to establish a dedicated municipal emergency management foundation. Cooperative procurement pathways are available, and the Homeland Security Grant Program represents a potential future funding avenue to offset costs.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity & Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Town has a documented mandate to meet WCAG 2.1 web accessibility standards by April 26, 2028, with no demonstrated current compliance. This gap creates legal exposure and restricts equitable resident access to essential public digital services.
The opportunity
The 2028 deadline is enforceable and approaching, making near-term planning essential to avoid legal and reputational risk. With no incumbent solution in place, the Town can pursue a consolidating, cost-effective approach aligned with cooperative procurement pathways and the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A January 2025 police cruiser accident exposed a critical gap in fleet safety technology, with no vehicle camera or incident recording capabilities currently in place. This unmet operational need elevates liability exposure and limits the Town's ability to document and review fleet incidents.
The opportunity
The recency of the incident creates a clear, event-driven case for near-term action, and cooperative procurement vehicles may significantly streamline the acquisition process. Addressing this gap now supports officer accountability, risk mitigation, and responsible stewardship of public safety resources ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Compliance Scope Assessment
Cybersecurity · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A conditional cybersecurity mandate has been identified for the Town of Tazewell, though its direct applicability remains unresolved. Without a confirmed scope or existing cybersecurity deployment, the town faces potential compliance exposure and operational risk if the mandate is determined to apply.
The opportunity
Clarifying mandate applicability now positions the town to act within the current fiscal cycle before compliance gaps become audit findings. With no incumbent solution in place, a confirmed scope creates a clear, uncontested path to address requirements using cooperative procurement vehicles likely available to the town.
