Public Safety Committee approves CivicPlus mass-notification system after federal provider exit
Summary
On June 15, 2026 the Henry County Public Safety Committee unanimously approved purchasing a mass notification system after the committee's prior provider contract was terminated due to federal-level changes; the lowest vendor was Civicplus, which the county already uses for website hosting.
The Henry County Public Safety Committee voted unanimously June 15 to approve a mass notification system after its prior provider's contract was terminated because of federal-level changes. Member Shannon Bumann moved to approve the system and Member Bob Wachtel seconded; the roll-call vote was recorded as all in favor and the motion carried.
Director Mat Schnepple told the committee that "our current providers contract was terminated due to changes at the Federal level and is no longer available." He advised that the lowest responsive vendor was Civicplus, a vendor the county already uses for website and code hosting. The committee did not record additional implementation dates or a procurement timeline in the minutes.
The decision was entered as a formal committee motion and will proceed to the next administrative steps for contracting and implementation. No dissenting votes or abstentions were recorded.
