Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city has an active, funded initiative to redesign and modernize its public-facing web presence, yet accessibility gaps persist ahead of a federal WCAG 2.1 compliance deadline in April 2027. Unresolved gaps expose the city to legal and regulatory risk while limiting equitable access to digital services for all residents.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–27 budget adoption on September 15, 2026 creates an immediate decision window, with existing funding already directed toward accessibility updates. Acting within this fiscal cycle ensures compliance readiness, reduces liability exposure, and supports equitable, accessible service delivery for the public.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Texas-mandated cybersecurity training and certification deadlines have passed with no documented completion, and no password management solution is currently in place. The likely conclusion of an incumbent cybersecurity vendor contract around August 2026 leaves a critical operational and compliance gap that elevates risk to city systems and data.
The opportunity
The FY 2026-27 budget includes technology improvement allocations, and the BJA JAG grant—with an October 2026 deadline—explicitly funds cybersecurity initiatives, offering a near-term funding path. Acting now closes a compliance gap, reduces operational risk, and aligns with active budget and grant cycles.

IT Modernization · Data Governance
High Priority
About this project
The city's proposed FY 2026-27 budget identifies aging IT infrastructure, server, backup, GIS, and data-management systems as priorities requiring modernization. Gaps in technology planning and server lifecycle create operational continuity risks for city services and staff.
The opportunity
Budget adoption in September 2026 creates an immediate decision window, with $536,000 in allocated funding across technology improvements and server replacement. Supplemental federal grant funding aligned with law enforcement information systems carries an October 2026 deadline, expanding available resources.

Discuss this project →Fleet & Equipment Modernization with Expanded Telematics
Fleet Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The city has active FY 2026–27 budget allocations for vehicle replacements and fleet camera systems, but telematics coverage remains limited to police vehicles, leaving broader municipal fleet operations without visibility or safety monitoring. This gap creates operational risk and limits the city's ability to manage assets, control costs, and ensure driver accountability across departments.
The opportunity
A grant opportunity with an October 9, 2026 deadline offers a potential supplemental funding path for fleet safety and telematics expansion, complementing already-approved FY 2026–27 budget allocations. Acting within this fiscal window allows the city to maximize existing investments, close coverage gaps, and strengthen fleet-wide accountability before the budget cycle closes.

Discuss this project →911 Dispatch Infrastructure & Public Safety Communications Modernization
Public Safety · Emergency Communications
High Priority
About this project
The city's aging 911 dispatch infrastructure requires modernization, with $350,000 specifically allocated for dispatch console replacement in the proposed FY 2026-27 budget. Outdated communications systems elevate operational risk for first responders and the residents they serve.
The opportunity
The FY 2026-27 budget adoption deadline of September 15, 2026 creates an immediate decision window, with dedicated funding already proposed for this initiative. Acting within this cycle ensures continuity of public safety communications and positions the city to leverage cooperative purchasing programs for streamlined procurement.

Discuss this project →EOC-Integrated Mass Notification & Emergency Planning
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city lacks a current, publicly available Emergency Management Plan and has no documented mass-notification solution integrated with its EOC, leaving measurable gaps in coordinated response capability. Media-reported communication failures and the absence of performance metrics elevate both operational and reputational risk for residents and staff.
The opportunity
Incoming elected leadership and an active FY2026–27 budget cycle—with over $3.2M in annual IT spend and allocations tied to public safety communications—create a near-term window to close this gap. Cooperative purchasing agreements are in place, and grant opportunities with upcoming deadlines may offset local costs for qualifying preparedness initiatives.
