Major Safety Incident at a Town Facility

A serious injury at a playground due to faulty equipment has created a crisis situation. Concerns about liability, public safety, and media scrutiny are growing, and legal action may be on the horizon. Residents are alarmed, and town officials must take immediate steps to manage the situation, ensure safety, and communicate effectively.

This strategy focuses on a three-part approach: swift action to address safety concerns, transparent communication with the public and media, and long-term improvements to restore trust. By handling the situation proactively, you can prevent further damage, demonstrate accountability, and position the town as a leader in public safety.
