Emergency Operations Plan Update & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city's Emergency Operations Plan is overdue since November 2025, and the current mass notification system logged a 90-minute delay in flood alerts during a recent deadly flood event, leaving residents without timely warnings. An incomplete after-action review and unfulfilled procedural requirements tied to the July 2026 disaster declaration compound compliance and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The July 2026 disaster declaration opens an immediate window for emergency procurement and disaster assistance funding, while the active FY2027 budget cycle and a September telecommunications milestone create compounding urgency. Addressing these gaps now reduces operational and compliance risk and positions the city to leverage available state and federal funding before the window closes.

Web Accessibility · Digital Services Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city has a confirmed WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance gap across public-facing digital portals, with a hard federal deadline of April 2028 and no remediation plan in place. Fragmented digital services—including reliance on PDF forms and disconnected platforms—create legal exposure and limit equitable resident access to city services.
The opportunity
The April 2028 compliance deadline creates a firm planning horizon, and acting now allows the city to shape full project scope before costs and timelines compress. Smaller remediation components may fall within informal procurement thresholds, enabling faster action. Recent leadership transitions present a favorable window for modernization alignment ahead of the FY planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city currently lacks dash-camera and telematics coverage across its fleet, with documented vehicle repairs and outdated emergency equipment—including aging AEDs in patrol units—creating moderate but preventable safety and liability exposure. Incoming police leadership presents a timely opportunity to establish baseline fleet safety and evidence-management standards.
The opportunity
Fleet-related technology investments under $100,000 can move quickly through informal procurement, and active grant opportunities exist to offset costs with limited local match required. Advancing this project during the current FY planning cycle positions the city to reduce operational risk and strengthen officer and public safety outcomes.

Discuss this project →IT Endpoint Security and Credential Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
Publicly reported cybersecurity vulnerabilities indicate gaps in endpoint protection and credential management across city systems. Without structured oversight of devices and access controls, the city faces elevated risk of data breach, service disruption, and unauthorized access to sensitive public safety infrastructure.
The opportunity
The JAG Program offers a viable funding pathway for public safety-aligned IT security improvements, and the city's active IT modernization initiative signals near-term budget receptivity. Addressing endpoint and credential gaps now reduces operational risk and positions the city ahead of the FY2027 budget cycle.

Discuss this project →Flood Warning Infrastructure Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
A documented 90-minute alert delay during a recent deadly flood exposed critical gaps in the city's warning infrastructure, with the Emergency Operations Plan overdue and after-action review incomplete. The July 2026 disaster declaration and a September telecommunications decision create immediate compliance and operational pressure to modernize flood warning systems.
The opportunity
Active pursuit of EDA and LCRA grant funding, combined with disaster declaration procurement authority and the FY2027 budget cycle, creates a defined window to advance this initiative with reduced local cost burden. Acting now aligns with compliance timelines, strengthens community resilience, and reduces the risk of repeated life-safety failures during future flood events.
