City Of Beverly: help needed on '"hidden" stuff, imbedded chips, traffic controllers, police and fire equipment'
Typical request for help from local government

Hello all,
As a member of the (now defunct) City Of Beverly Computer Commission, I have been asked to look into the Y2K issues Beverly may face. Now, I am not to concerned about the computer department itself. They are doing a fine audit now,but I want to help with the "hidden" stuff, imbedded chips, traffic controllers, police and fire equipment, JIT delivery vendors, elevators, etc.
Is anyone else looking at local towns and cities and the impact of Y2K on them?
We want to meet with department heads, educate them to potential issues, help them develop an audit of Y2K related equipment and services, and draft compliance letters for them to send to vendors.
Any help would be appreciated.
P.S. can anyone point me to a Y2K disaster plan hospitals are doing for social services, or maybe a Civil Defense plan?
Thanks
Gardner
