Cybersecurity & Endpoint Security Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A vendor-related data-security incident in September 2024 exposed critical gaps in password management and endpoint controls across City systems, including police records. Texas cybersecurity compliance mandates and outsourced IT functions heighten the urgency for centralized, resilient security infrastructure.
The opportunity
The FY 2026-27 budget, active October 1, 2026, includes $470,000 in targeted allocations for this initiative, and a JAG grant with an October 2026 deadline provides an additional funding path. Acting now addresses compliance deadlines, reduces breach exposure, and aligns with an immediate purchasing window.
Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Consolidation
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City operates a 25-vehicle fleet and a separate police camera system with no unified telematics platform, creating gaps in driver-behavior monitoring, maintenance alerts, and consolidated oversight. A federally funded Comprehensive Safety Action Plan (SS4A grant) formalizes the commitment to address these operational risks.
The opportunity
The FY 2026-27 budget includes $615,000 in fleet equipment allocations and an active SS4A grant, creating a well-funded, time-sensitive window to consolidate telematics and camera management, reduce liability exposure, and advance measurable public safety outcomes.
Strengthen Emergency Preparedness and EOP Governance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City faces critical emergency preparedness gaps, including an Emergency Operations Plan of unknown age, up to $6M in Hurricane Beryl recovery exposure, and unresolved mitigation grant obligations. Annual EOP reviews and NIMS compliance are required, and fragmented alert systems increase operational and response risk.
The opportunity
EMPG grant awards expected in September 2026 provide a near-term funding pathway, and an established $307,000 annual emergency management budget confirms readiness to act. Formalizing EOP governance now reduces compliance risk, strengthens community resilience, and positions the City to meet outstanding mitigation obligations.
Web Accessibility & Digital Document Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The City has not established WCAG 2.1 conformance across its public-facing web properties and digital documents, creating legal exposure and barriers to resident access. With no conformance baseline in place, remediation scope remains undefined and compliance risk grows as the April 2028 deadline approaches.
The opportunity
Beginning remediation now prevents compressed timelines and costlier emergency fixes as the 2028 deadline nears. Ongoing digital engagement and permitting modernization efforts create a natural window to embed accessibility standards into active initiatives within the current fiscal cycle.
