Emergency Operations Plan & Warning Systems Development
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The county lacks a publicly documented Emergency Operations Plan and relies on incomplete warning systems, drawing past media criticism. A new Emergency Management Coordinator appointment and mass volunteer fire department resignations have compounded operational risk and continuity gaps.
The opportunity
A $225,000 Resilient Communities Program grant targeting public safety and essential services, combined with an upcoming budget hearing, creates a defined decision window. Advancing this project now addresses compliance gaps, stabilizes emergency response capacity, and aligns with active wildfire and hazard mitigation initiatives.

Cybersecurity · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
A past-due cybersecurity compliance mandate for password security remains unaddressed with no technology currently in place, creating immediate regulatory and operational risk. A fragmented IT and cybersecurity provider environment compounds the gap, leaving credentials and sensitive public systems without unified protection.
The opportunity
The absence of any existing solution means this is a greenfield implementation with no displacement friction, enabling faster procurement and deployment. A fire department assistance grant program represents a potential funding pathway, and cooperative purchasing options may further streamline acquisition within the current budget cycle.

IT Modernization · Operational Resilience
High Priority
About this project
A fragmented managed IT and backup provider environment creates gaps in coverage, resilience, and centralized oversight. With annual IT spend under $21,000, foundational infrastructure remains underinvested, elevating operational and continuity risk for public services.
The opportunity
The Rural Volunteer Fire Department Assistance Program represents a potential funding pathway, and the current budget cycle presents a timely window for consolidation. Unifying IT and backup management reduces risk, lowers long-term costs, and strengthens service continuity for staff and residents.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The entity has a documented gap in WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable access to public-facing digital services. The current web environment requires remediation or replacement to meet accessibility standards, leaving residents with disabilities underserved.
The opportunity
Addressing this compliance obligation reduces litigation risk and strengthens public trust in digital service delivery. Remediation aligns with upcoming fiscal planning cycles and may qualify for state or federal digital equity funding streams.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Monitoring
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The fleet currently lacks dash cameras, telematics, and driver-behavior monitoring, creating an unaddressed operational safety gap. Without visibility into vehicle use and driver conduct, the entity faces elevated liability exposure and limited ability to document incidents or enforce safe practices.
The opportunity
No competing initiatives are in place, making this a clear starting point for a phased pilot aligned with the upcoming budget cycle. A targeted deployment can reduce liability risk, improve fleet accountability, and may qualify for public safety or resilience funding streams.
