Modernize Public Safety RMS/CAD Infrastructure
Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The City's legacy, non-cloud-based RMS and CAD systems create operational limitations for public safety coordination, with post-incident reviews from severe weather events exposing gaps in emergency response. Leadership has identified cloud-based modernization as a strategic priority, and the current architecture poses continuity and interoperability risks.
The opportunity
An active grant pursuit and a FY2026–2027 budget decision window closing in September 2026 create a near-term funding pathway, supported by a proposed 90.3% increase in IT expenditures. Acting within this cycle positions the City to reduce operational risk, strengthen emergency coordination, and align capital investment with available public safety funding.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City faces critical emergency preparedness gaps, including an overdue county emergency plan, fragmented mass notification across two platforms with voluntary enrollment limitations, and documented operational failures during a recent severe weather event. NIMS adoption requirements add a regulatory compliance deadline, elevating risk to residents and first responders.
The opportunity
FY2026–2027 capital allocations and an active Public Safety grant create a near-term funding pathway to close these gaps. Acting within the current budget cycle reduces compliance exposure, strengthens coordinated response capacity, and improves community-wide alert coverage before the next severe weather season.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The City faces active Texas compliance mandates for annual cybersecurity training and password security standards, yet no password management solution is confirmed despite widespread Microsoft 365 use. This gap exposes city systems, staff credentials, and resident data to preventable security risk.
The opportunity
A proposed 90.3% increase in IT expenditures for FY2026-2027 and an active public safety grant create a well-timed funding path for this initiative. Addressing the compliance gap now reduces audit exposure, aligns with the city's IT modernization strategy, and strengthens credential security before the next budget cycle closes.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Video Evidence Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety Technology
High Priority
About this project
The City operates an aging fleet with incomplete video and telematics coverage, leaving liability exposure unquantified and evidence gaps unaddressed. An existing fleet management solution dating to 2022 is approaching a natural contract displacement window, and fleet modernization is an active strategic initiative.
The opportunity
The proposed FY2026–2027 budget includes a significant increase in capital and IT spending, providing a credible funding pathway for fleet technology investment. Acting within this budget cycle reduces long-term liability risk and aligns with the City's fleet modernization initiative before costs compound.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City faces a binding mandate to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA web accessibility standards by 2027, ensuring digital services are equitable and legally compliant for all residents. Current digital infrastructure may require remediation or expansion to close accessibility gaps before the deadline.
The opportunity
The 2027 compliance deadline creates a defined planning window that aligns with the upcoming FY 2026–2027 budget cycle, where IT expenditures are proposed to increase significantly. Acting now allows the City to phase remediation costs, reduce legal exposure, and ensure equitable public access to digital services.
