Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a city-level Emergency Operations Plan and depends on county-wide notification systems, leaving critical preparedness gaps. Recent declared emergencies — including severe weather, a critical incident, and a fatal fire — combined with NIMS compliance requirements for grant eligibility, elevate the risk of continued inaction.
The opportunity
The FY2026–27 budget is being finalized with a public hearing in June 2026, and relevant grant deadlines arrive in July 2026, creating a narrow, high-value action window. Dedicated public safety tech funding and state/federal grant eligibility provide a clear path to address compliance gaps and strengthen community-level emergency response.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has committed to achieving WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance across public-facing digital portals by April 26, 2027. Current accessibility gaps create legal exposure and limit equitable resident access to government services, making remediation both a compliance mandate and a public equity priority.
The opportunity
The 2027 deadline establishes a firm, non-negotiable timeline that supports initiating the project now. The FY2026–27 budget cycle, with a public hearing in June 2026, provides a near-term window to secure funding commitments and align this work with the city's declared website accessibility initiative.

Discuss this project →Modernizing Municipal Fleet with Telematics
Fleet Management · Public Works Technology
High Priority
About this project
The city currently operates without any telematics or dashcam infrastructure, creating a greenfield opportunity to improve fleet visibility, driver safety, and asset accountability. No incumbent solution exists, and street/bridge grants alongside DPW capital outlays in the proposed budget may provide viable funding pathways.
The opportunity
Budget finalization in May–June 2026 and grant deadlines in July 2026 create a natural window to advance this initiative within the current fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, reducing administrative burden and accelerating time to deployment.
Strengthen Endpoint Security and Cyber Risk Posture
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Existing managed service relationships supporting M365 and SaaS environments may leave endpoint monitoring and credential management gaps unaddressed. Without a defined cybersecurity posture, public sector entities face elevated risk of data exposure, service disruption, and audit findings.
The opportunity
The upcoming FY2026–27 budget cycle and grant deadlines in July 2026 create a near-term window to formalize endpoint and password management controls. Proactive investment now reduces operational risk, supports compliance readiness, and may be eligible for state or federal technology funding.
