EOP Renewal and Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is 9 years old and faces a compliance renewal mandate by 2027/2028, while the existing mass notification system has documented outage limitations. A recent EF-1 tornado occurred without a formal after-action review, compounding public safety risk and potential funding jeopardy.
The opportunity
A September 2026 budget decision window and an active Fire Department grant through Texas A&M Forest Service create immediate momentum for emergency management investment. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure, strengthens community resilience, and aligns with the city's designated Top Strategic Priority for EM coordination.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The city currently has no plan or technology in place to meet the WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standard mandated by 2028, leaving residents without equitable access to digital services and exposing the city to legal and compliance risk.
The opportunity
With a defined 2028 compliance deadline and a September 2026 budget meeting approaching, now is the critical window to initiate planning and secure funding. The city's projected FY 2026–2027 surplus supports investment, and this initiative may align with state or federal digital equity funding opportunities.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Following a high-profile 2024 cyber incident, the city lacks identified solutions for endpoint protection, password management, or security monitoring. With no incumbents in place and some IT budget lines proposed for cuts, operational and data security risk remains elevated.
The opportunity
A federal justice assistance grant cycle offers a strong funding pathway for cybersecurity initiatives, and a September 2026 budget meeting creates a near-term decision window. Acting now aligns modernization efforts with available external funding and new leadership priorities.

Fleet Management · Public Works Operations
High Priority
About this project
The city has budgeted for fleet modernization but lacks telematics capabilities, leaving vehicle operations without real-time visibility or safety oversight. Rising property insurance costs and the absence of safety technology signal growing financial and operational risk to public assets and staff.
The opportunity
Fleet modernization is already planned and funded within the city's strategic initiatives, creating a timely entry point for telematics adoption ahead of the FY 2026–2027 budget cycle. Cooperative procurement pathways may reduce procurement burden and accelerate implementation without requiring a formal bid process.
