Emergency Operations Plan Modernization & Mass Notification Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan dates to 1983 and is critically overdue for revision, with recent storm and drought emergencies producing no documented after-action reviews. Fragmented alert infrastructure and unmet NIMS and PIO certification requirements compound compliance risk and leave gaps in public notification capability.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget cycle is active, mitigation funding has already been received, and an ongoing Hazard Mitigation Action Plan update signals organizational readiness. Addressing EOP modernization and alert consolidation now resolves overdue compliance mandates and strengthens community resilience before the next declared emergency.

Cybersecurity · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The city currently lacks a documented password policy and has no deployed identity and access management solution, representing a critical and flagged cybersecurity gap. Compliance mandates require immediate remediation, and strategic goals around digital forensics further underscore the need for a comprehensive, citywide security posture.
The opportunity
The FY2027 IT budget reflects increased technology spending, and the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program grant explicitly covers cybersecurity and identity management initiatives. Acting within the current budget and grant planning cycle positions the city to close compliance gaps, reduce breach risk, and protect public data with available funding.

IT Modernization · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
The city's IT environment faces expiring contracts for software maintenance and GPS monitoring alongside active grant compliance mandates for technology, creating urgent refresh windows. Without modernized endpoint and IT management tooling, operational continuity, digital forensics capabilities, and grant compliance obligations remain at risk.
The opportunity
The active FY2027 budget planning cycle includes proposed increases in IT spending, and the BJA FY 2026 JAG Program grant explicitly covers endpoint management and information systems — providing a near-term funding vehicle. Acting now aligns procurement with expiring contract timelines and positions the city to meet compliance mandates before the next fiscal year.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a pending WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance requirement for public-facing digital portals, with current tools covering only social media archiving and leaving core content management inaccessible. This gap creates measurable compliance exposure and risks inequitable access to essential city services for residents.
The opportunity
The WCAG 2.1 Level AA mandate establishes a defined compliance deadline, and the FY2027 budget cycle reflects increased IT spending that supports investment now. Acting within the current planning window reduces legal and audit risk while improving equitable digital service delivery for all residents.

Discuss this project →Fleet GPS Monitoring & Vehicle Safety Enhancement
Fleet Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The city's current GPS fleet monitoring contracts are nearing expiration, creating a natural transition point to evaluate and strengthen vehicle tracking and safety capabilities. While no significant fleet-related accidents or liability events have been identified, fleet insurance costs and existing in-car video infrastructure signal room for targeted operational improvement.
The opportunity
The active FY2027 budget planning cycle, combined with a proposed increase in the public safety budget, creates a timely window to advance fleet safety investments. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, reduce administrative burden, and maximize stewardship of public funds.
