Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City faces a mandatory ADA Title II and WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2027, with active gaps across public-facing digital portals, a recently revamped website, and a newly deployed mobile app. Unresolved accessibility deficiencies create legal exposure and restrict equitable resident access to essential city services.
The opportunity
The April 2027 regulatory deadline creates a defined procurement window, and the City's FY2026 general fund increase of 17% supports near-term investment. Cooperative purchasing membership can streamline procurement, and this initiative aligns with the City's active digital modernization strategy.

Discuss this project →Citywide Emergency Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City's emergency notification capability is fragmented across two separate platforms, creating coverage gaps and coordination risk during critical incidents. NIMS compliance and EOP/COOP integration requirements are unmet, and the absence of after-action reviews for recent severe weather events signals unresolved preparedness vulnerabilities.
The opportunity
Dedicated emergency management budget, incoming Fire Chief leadership, and alignment with HSGP and EMPG grant programs create a timely window to consolidate and modernize notification infrastructure. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces compliance exposure and strengthens citywide response readiness for residents and first responders.
Municipal IT & Public Safety Computer Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The City is actively investing in police and municipal IT infrastructure, with dedicated annual IT spend of $199,300 and recent budget increases for police computers and computer services. Gaps in endpoint management and credential security present operational and public-safety risks that current spending levels have not yet fully addressed.
The opportunity
The BJA FY 2026 Justice Assistance Grant provides a viable federal funding pathway for cybersecurity improvements tied to criminal-justice information systems, aligning with the City's active IT modernization initiative. Acting within the current grant cycle and fiscal planning window maximizes funding leverage and reduces risk to public-safety operations.

Discuss this project →Police and Fire Fleet Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City is advancing modernization of both police and fire/emergency-response fleets amid sharp cost increases — general insurance premiums up 19.2% and workers' compensation costs up 16.2% for FY2026 — signaling unmitigated operational risk. Without proactive fleet safety monitoring, these cost pressures and liability exposures are likely to continue escalating.
The opportunity
New leadership in the Fire Chief and City Traffic Director roles, combined with a $6M capital improvement budget for FY2026 and cooperative purchasing membership, create a timely window to structure and advance fleet safety investments. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports cost-justification, reduces insurance-driven liability, and improves frontline responder safety outcomes.
