Emergency Response Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City has an uncompleted Emergency Response Plan and documented mass notification failures during boil-water incidents, leaving residents unreached and exposing the City to compliance risk under active NIMS and annual review mandates. Fragmented alerting tools and unresolved gaps in coordination create compounding operational and public safety vulnerabilities.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget hearing in September 2026 includes dedicated public safety and communications funding, creating a near-term decision window. Federal grant programs such as EMPG and HSGP offer eligible funding pathways to address planning and notification gaps with limited local match required.
Web Accessibility & Digital Experience Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City is actively working toward WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance with a 2028 deadline, while known gaps remain in public-facing digital portals. Expanding digital services—including chatbot and kiosk deployments—increase the scope and urgency of closing those accessibility gaps before mandated deadlines.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes a dedicated digital accessibility line item, and Digital Equity Act funding offers an eligible grant pathway. Acting within the current budget cycle enables phased procurement, reduces compliance risk, and ensures equitable public access to city services.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The City carries an active cybersecurity training and compliance mandate with no dedicated technology in place to fulfill it, leaving endpoint management and privileged credential security exposed. This gap creates measurable operational and audit risk heading into the FY 2026–2027 budget cycle.
The opportunity
A budget hearing in September 2026 includes cybersecurity-specific appropriations, and the project is eligible for state and federal grant funding, reducing local cost burden. Acting within this fiscal window allows the City to close compliance gaps, strengthen its security posture, and align procurement with available funding.
Fleet Telematics Modernization & Traffic Safety Enhancement
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City faces a growing evidence and monitoring gap in fleet operations, with rising insurance premiums and no dash-camera capability to support crash investigations. The recent formation of a Police Motors Unit has elevated the need for reliable incident documentation and real-time fleet visibility.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, with public safety as a stated funding priority, presents a clear window to address fleet visibility gaps before costs escalate further. Expanding telematics capabilities now supports officer accountability, reduces liability exposure, and strengthens the City's stewardship of public safety resources.

Discuss this project →Police Leadership Transition & Public Safety Technology Re-Evaluation
Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The recent departure of the Police Chief and placement of an interim leader signals a period of transition in which existing public safety systems and technology priorities are subject to re-evaluation. Incoming leadership will shape the department's direction during a budget cycle where public safety is a stated funding priority, making unaddressed gaps in tools, planning, and operations a heightened risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget cycle presents a clear funding window, with public safety designated as a priority and increased revenue available to support new initiatives. Engaging during this transition ensures technology decisions align with incoming leadership's priorities and long-term operational needs before plans are finalized.
