Emergency Notification System Replacement
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A data breach and service outage affecting the incumbent emergency notification platform have created critical gaps in the district's ability to reliably alert the public during emergencies. The high volume of 9-1-1 activity and mission-critical nature of this infrastructure elevate the risk to public safety and operational continuity.
The opportunity
FY 2027 capital outlay explicitly supports emergency management infrastructure, and applicable federal grant programs (JAG, HSGP, EMPG) provide additional funding pathways with strong eligibility alignment. Acting within the current fiscal cycle enables a streamlined procurement process and restores reliable public notification before the next emergency event.
Password Security & Multi-Factor Authentication Upgrade
Cybersecurity · Public Safety IT
High Priority
About this project
A mission-critical 9-1-1 communications environment has identified gaps in password management and multi-factor authentication enforcement, elevating risk to sensitive dispatch systems and public safety operations. FY 2027 budget line items explicitly fund two-factor authentication and cybersecurity awareness, signaling readiness to act on documented compliance and operational needs.
The opportunity
FY 2027 budget approval for two-factor authentication creates a clear, near-term funding window to address credential security in a high-stakes public safety environment. Grant programs including JAG, HSGP, and EMPG are applicable for cybersecurity improvements, reducing local funding burden. Acting now aligns with active capital planning cycles and strengthens operational resilience for 9-1-1 service continuity.
Network Monitoring & Endpoint Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The district's FY 2027 budget funds network upgrades, workstation replacements, and cybersecurity improvements to support mission-critical 9-1-1 operations. An expiring infrastructure contract within 18 months, combined with mandates for multi-factor authentication and endpoint visibility, elevates operational and compliance risk if action is delayed.
The opportunity
FY 2027 budget allocations—including a dedicated cybersecurity line item and significant capital outlay—confirm funded intent, and the contract expiration window creates a near-term decision point. Grant programs supporting public safety technology improvements and cooperative purchasing vehicles can accelerate procurement and reduce local cost burden.
New Primary 9-1-1 Dispatch Facility: Technology Integration
Emergency Communications · Public Safety Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
A $10M, budget-approved initiative to construct a new primary 9-1-1 and dispatch operations center on Kent Street requires integrated technology planning across emergency communications, cybersecurity, and network infrastructure. A recent emergency notification system breach and outage, combined with an expiring CAD contract, elevate operational and continuity risk during this transition.
The opportunity
The FY 2027 timeline and approved capital budget create a defined window to modernize mission-critical systems within a purpose-built facility. Federal grant programs, including JAG, HSGP, and EMPG, offer eligible funding paths for communications, cybersecurity, and interoperable infrastructure investments aligned to this project.
