Patrol Fleet Safety & Dashcam System Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Sheriff's Department faces an active federal lawsuit citing simultaneous camera system failure, alongside rising fleet insurance costs and an identified need to modernize dashcam transmitter and receiver systems. These gaps create compounding liability, compliance, and officer safety risks across the patrol vehicle fleet.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes $555K allocated for patrol vehicles, establishing a near-term capital investment window aligned with this project. Cooperative procurement pathways are available, and law enforcement technology initiatives may qualify for federal justice assistance funding in the current grant cycle.

Discuss this project →Outdoor Warning Siren & Flood Warning System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county faces critical gaps in flood-warning coverage and outdated public-safety communications, with Emergency Operations Plan status unresolved. A $1.25M outdoor warning siren initiative is actively underway, and uncoordinated Flash Flood Warning systems elevate preparedness and life-safety risk.
The opportunity
Texas Government Code Chapter 418 compliance and the FY 2026–2027 budget cycle create a near-term decision window for this $1.25M initiative. State and federal funding pathways are available, and acting now reduces life-safety risk while aligning capital investment with active budget planning.

Public Safety Communications · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
Bandera County's proposed FY 2026–2027 budget allocates $4.6M to modernize aging radio and public safety communications infrastructure, one of the largest single capital investments in the county's budget. Outdated systems represent a documented gap in emergency management and operational service delivery, elevating risk to first responders and residents during critical incidents.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle creates a near-term decision window for this $4.6M investment, with compliance obligations under Texas Government Code Chapter 418 reinforcing urgency. Acting within this cycle positions the county to close critical communications gaps, strengthen emergency response continuity, and responsibly steward significant public capital.

Discuss this project →IT Endpoint Security and Cybersecurity Compliance Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The county has documented prior cyber incidents, active cyber insurance claims, and ongoing software and training expenditures tied to compliance obligations. With IT endpoint refresh initiatives underway and $101K allocated for IT software in the proposed FY 2026–2027 budget, gaps in unified endpoint management and credential security pose continued operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle creates a near-term decision window, and the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program offers a strong funding path for IT management and complementary cybersecurity initiatives. Acting now reduces exposure from prior incidents, strengthens compliance posture, and leverages the county's existing Microsoft 365 environment for a cost-efficient expansion.

Discuss this project →Public Records Redaction Software Implementation
Public Records Compliance · Law Enforcement Technology
High Priority
About this project
The county has identified a strategic need for public information redaction software, driven by public records compliance requirements and the growing volume of video evidence from Sheriff fleet and body camera operations. Without a dedicated redaction solution, staff face manual processing burdens and elevated risk of improper disclosure.
The opportunity
This initiative is actively funded or seeking funding and aligns with the FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, which already includes capital investment in Sheriff fleet video-evidence systems. Addressing redaction now reduces compliance exposure and operational strain while leveraging existing budget momentum.
