Emergency Operations Plan & Unified Incident Communication
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's EOP status is unknown, and Hurricane Helene exposed critical preparedness gaps alongside a fake alert incident that undermined public trust. Current reliance on basic website alerts and a separate phone process leaves residents and staff without a unified, reliable emergency communication system—while compliance mandates for EOP and water system emergency notification add regulatory urgency.
The opportunity
Real-world disaster impact and active compliance mandates create a high-urgency window to address preparedness gaps before the next incident. Cooperative procurement membership provides a streamlined, cost-effective path to act within the current fiscal cycle without lengthy solicitation timelines.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently relies on fragmented alert systems — including basic website notices and a separate emergency phone process — with no unified notification platform. A recent fake alert incident exposed the operational and public safety risks of this gap, and EOP compliance mandates for water systems remain unresolved.
The opportunity
Post-Hurricane Helene urgency and active internal initiatives signal organizational readiness to act. Cooperative procurement membership provides a streamlined, compliant path to acquisition, reducing time-to-implementation and supporting responsible stewardship of public funds within the current fiscal cycle.

Fleet Management · Operational Accountability
High Priority
About this project
A prior Comptroller audit identified unauthorized vehicle use and inadequate fueling controls, and no enterprise fleet management solution is currently in place. Without visibility into vehicle activity and fuel consumption, the district faces ongoing accountability gaps and unmitigated operational risk.
The opportunity
Cooperative procurement membership provides a streamlined path to establish fleet controls without a lengthy bid process, supporting responsible stewardship of public assets. Addressing this greenfield gap now positions the district ahead of future audit scrutiny and aligns with upcoming fiscal planning cycles.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district currently has no identifiable enterprise cybersecurity solutions in place, creating significant exposure to data breaches, service disruptions, and regulatory risk. With no documented IT investment baseline and no evidence of active compliance measures, critical infrastructure and customer data remain unprotected.
The opportunity
The State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program (SLCGP) offers a potential funding pathway, and acting within the current grant cycle can offset implementation costs despite a matching fund requirement. Establishing a foundational cybersecurity program now reduces operational risk and positions the district for future compliance and resilience.
