Strengthen Emergency Preparedness & Hazard Mitigation Planning
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City of Friona lacks a current Emergency Operations Plan, has an overdue hazard mitigation plan update, and relies on a fragmented notification system with documented delivery reliability concerns. These gaps create significant compliance and operational risk, particularly in active disaster response scenarios.
The opportunity
An upcoming budget hearing and imminent hazard mitigation plan adoption create a near-term window to act, with existing emergency management budget allocations providing a viable funding channel. New city leadership signals openness to strategic investment, and this initiative may align with available state and federal preparedness funding.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city currently relies on a fragmented alerting setup — a county-wide notification system paired with standalone city sirens — creating reliability gaps and limiting direct city control over public emergency communications. This fragmentation elevates risk during time-critical incidents and undermines unified alerting required to support a compliant Emergency Operations Plan.
The opportunity
Upcoming budget hearings and new city leadership create a timely window to advance consolidation before priorities are set. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and this project directly supports hazard mitigation plan adoption and EOP compliance — strengthening public safety outcomes with existing budget pathways.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Awareness Training & Password Security Compliance
Cybersecurity · IT Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces an unaddressed compliance mandate for cybersecurity awareness training and password security, with no program or controls currently in place. A fragmented IT environment and absence of dedicated security monitoring heighten exposure to credential-based threats and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
New municipal leadership creates a timely opening to prioritize foundational security hygiene, and the project's scope may qualify for streamlined procurement under the city's informal quote threshold. Acting now closes a documented compliance gap and reduces operational risk ahead of the upcoming budget cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Vehicle Monitoring Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Rising insurance premiums across Police, Fire, EMS, and Water departments—alongside a documented vehicle damage incident and aging fire apparatus—signal growing financial and operational liability. The absence of vehicle-level driver behavior monitoring and evidence collection leaves multiple departments exposed to safety and accountability gaps.
The opportunity
The PROTECT Competitive Grant Program offers a potential funding pathway for telematics and connected-vehicle investments tied to transportation resilience, aligning with the current fiscal planning cycle. New city leadership and an upcoming budget hearing create a timely opening to advance fleet safety as a cross-departmental priority with measurable risk-reduction outcomes.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital properties have an open WCAG compliance gap, creating ongoing legal exposure for the city. The launch of a new online RV campspot program amplifies the need for fully accessible, compliant digital experiences across all resident-facing portals.
The opportunity
WCAG compliance is a standing legal risk driver with no budget-cycle dependency, making action immediately justifiable. New city leadership and an upcoming budget cycle create a favorable window to advance accessibility initiatives and align with cooperative procurement pathways for cost efficiency.
