NEWPORT NEWS REDEVELOPMENT & HOUSING AUTHORITY
MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 13, 2026
TO: Board of Commissioners
FROM: Lysandra M. Shaw,
Executive Director
SUBJECT: Artificial Intelligence (Al) Policy
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide background and context regarding the
proposed resolution evidencing the Newport News Redevelopment & Housing
Authority's intent to establish and implement an Artificial Intelligence (Al) Policy.
As technology continues to evolve, Artificial Intelligence tools are increasingly being
used by public agencies to improve operational efficiency, data analysis, service
delivery, and internal workflows. While Al presents opportunities to enhance productivity
and effectiveness, it also introduces considerations related to data privacy,
cybersecurity, ethical use, transparency, and regulatory compliance.
The proposed resolution does not authorize the immediate implementation of specific Al
tools. Rather, it formally acknowledges the Authority's intent to develop a
comprehensive Al Policy that will establish clear guidelines for evaluating, approving,
and governing the use of Al technologies across the organization. This policy will ensure
that any future use of Al aligns with the Authority's mission, protects sensitive
information, and complies with applicable federal, state, and local requirements.
The attached resolution and Al Policy are recommended for approval.
