Mass Notification System Consolidation and Replacement
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city operates a fragmented mass notification environment across two platforms, with one agreement imminently terminating and a prior system lost to a cyberattack-related outage. A recent wildfire event has further exposed the continuity and notification-resilience gap, elevating risk to public safety and emergency response operations.
The opportunity
A funded initiative for mass-notification replacement and regionalization is already approved, with $267,500 in Emergency Management and Public Safety tech spend allocated and EMPG/HSGP grant opportunities identified. Acting within the current procurement window enables consolidation, reduces operational risk, and positions the city for a resilient, unified alerting capability.
Cybersecurity Infrastructure & Password Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city currently lacks password management controls and operates under an active Texas cybersecurity reporting mandate, creating direct compliance exposure and operational risk. With $80,000 approved in the 2026–2027 budget for IT equipment, a modernization initiative is underway to close security gaps and strengthen the city's internal security posture.
The opportunity
Budget approval and an active compliance mandate create immediate, actionable timing for this initiative. Eligible grant pathways—including EMPG and HSGP—can offset costs, and the current fiscal cycle supports procurement decisions that reduce audit risk and protect public systems.
Web Accessibility & ADA Digital Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city operates under an active ADA transition plan with a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline for public-facing digital portals, creating immediate legal and accessibility exposure. Failure to remediate gaps risks civil complaints, service inequity for residents with disabilities, and regulatory non-compliance.
The opportunity
The active compliance deadline makes this a time-sensitive priority within the current fiscal cycle, and cooperative purchasing agreements support efficient, compliant procurement. Addressing accessibility now reduces legal risk, advances digital equity, and positions the city to meet obligations before enforcement action occurs.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The city's IT environment relies on a third-party managed service provider, creating potential visibility and control gaps for internally owned endpoints such as dispatch workstations. An approved 2026–2027 budget of $80,000 for IT equipment signals planned investment, but unmanaged endpoints elevate cybersecurity and operational continuity risk.
The opportunity
Budget approval and alignment with EMPG and HSGP grant categories create a credible, near-term funding pathway for endpoint management solutions. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports compliance with Texas cybersecurity mandates and reduces operational risk across public safety infrastructure.
