Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 AA Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The county faces a hard WCAG 2.1 AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2027, with identified gaps across public-facing digital portals. Failure to remediate creates legal exposure and restricts equitable public access to government services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
Budget is already approved for this initiative, and cooperative procurement vehicles are available to accelerate contracting within the current planning cycle. Acting now ensures remediation is complete ahead of the April 2027 deadline, reducing legal risk and improving service equity.

Discuss this project →Emergency Operations Plan & 911 Resilience Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is unvalidated with unclear age and status, and past 911 system failures have exposed coordination and resilience gaps. A TDEM planning standard update mandate requires full compliance by November 26, 2027, elevating both operational and regulatory risk for residents and first responders.
The opportunity
The November 2027 TDEM deadline makes this a time-bound, compliance-driven priority with limited runway for planning and procurement. Emergency Preparedness funding requests and an active FY2026 911 appropriation provide identified budget pathways, and cooperative purchasing vehicles may further streamline acquisition within the current fiscal cycle.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Infrastructure & Multi-Factor Authentication Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county's FY2027 IT plan includes VPN multi-factor authentication token deployment and a hardware refresh, while legacy remote management tools present continuity and security risks. With an annual IT and software spend of $921,500, closing these endpoint and identity gaps is critical to protecting county systems and public data.
The opportunity
The FY2027 IT Infrastructure Upgrades initiative has active budget allocation and clearly identified MFA and endpoint management needs, creating a defined procurement window. Funding paths including the BJA FY2026 JAG Program and SLCGP may offset costs, and cooperative procurement vehicles can streamline acquisition within the current planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Telematics Gap Remediation
Fleet Safety · Risk Management
High Priority
About this project
A documented fleet accident resulting in an employee injury and public reporting has exposed the county's lack of telematics or dash-cam coverage, leaving critical gaps in driver behavior monitoring, incident documentation, and liability protection. Without visibility into vehicle operations, the county faces ongoing safety, legal, and reputational risk.
The opportunity
Public attention and documented injury elevate this beyond routine planning, creating immediate pressure to act within the current budget cycle. Federal grant programs, including the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program and Body-Worn Camera initiative, offer viable funding paths to offset implementation costs with limited local match required.

Discuss this project →Mass Notification System Consolidation and Resilience
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county relies on a regional mass notification service without clear independent contract ownership, creating operational dependency and resilience gaps exposed by past 911 system failures. Without a directly managed agreement, the county's ability to control emergency communications during critical incidents remains limited and compliance with TDEM planning mandates is at risk.
The opportunity
TDEM emergency management planning standards require compliance by November 2027, creating a defined window to consolidate and independently manage mass notification capabilities. The FY2026 911 ETCOG appropriation represents an eligible funding vehicle, and cooperative procurement contracts may further streamline acquisition within the current budget cycle.
