Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county's Emergency Operations Plan is 5.8 years old and critically overdue for review, while the existing mass notification system relies on opt-in participation, leaving significant public alerting gaps. Absent documented performance reviews, compliance and community preparedness risks continue to compound.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget process and an active federal grant window provide near-term funding pathways for emergency management modernization. New county leadership signals openness to prioritizing this overdue initiative, making now the right moment to act and reduce operational and public safety risk.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The county has missed a required cybersecurity training deadline and sustained a high-profile data breach, exposing gaps in endpoint management and credential security. With $1.46M in annual IT spend and no confirmed remediation plan, operational and reputational risk to county systems and residents remains elevated.
The opportunity
A countywide IT modernization initiative with a proposed FY2027 budget creates a defined funding window to act. The BJA JAG grant explicitly covers cybersecurity and endpoint management, offering a direct, low-barrier funding path to close compliance gaps and reduce breach risk before the next budget cycle.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The county's public-facing website has documented gaps against the WCAG 2.1 Level AA standard, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable resident access to digital services. This initiative has been identified but remains unfunded, elevating both compliance and service delivery risk.
The opportunity
The WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline creates clear urgency, and the upcoming FY2027 budget hearing is an immediate window to secure funding. With $1.46M in annual IT spend, the county has demonstrated capacity to prioritize digital compliance investments that protect residents and reduce legal risk.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Department has seen a 24.4% rise in vehicle insurance costs alongside active patrol vehicle replacements and incomplete safety-video coverage, signaling gaps in driver behavior monitoring and fleet oversight. These operational gaps increase liability exposure and underscore the need for a cohesive fleet safety strategy that integrates with existing GPS and CAD/RMS infrastructure.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget cycle and ongoing fleet modernization initiative create a timely window to address safety gaps, with BJA JAG and Rural Law Enforcement Grant funds identified as eligible funding paths. Acting now can reduce insurance liability, improve officer safety, and align procurement with cooperative purchasing vehicles for streamlined acquisition.
