ADA Digital Compliance & WCAG 2.1 Upgrade
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Town's public-facing digital portals currently meet only WCAG 2.0 standards, falling short of the federally mandated WCAG 2.1 Level AA threshold required by April 26, 2027. Identified ADA compliance gaps across digital services expose the Town to legal and regulatory risk while limiting equitable public access.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 adopted budget includes $40k in dedicated funding for accessibility improvements, confirming spending readiness within the current fiscal cycle. Acting now allows sufficient lead time before the 2027 deadline and aligns with upcoming IT contract renewals in September 2025, creating a natural re-evaluation window.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town lacks a current Emergency Operations Plan — the only located document is a 2013 Hazard Mitigation Action Plan — while mass notification is split across two fragmented platforms with no documented exercises or audits. Active NIMS compliance mandates and plan maintenance requirements remain unmet, elevating operational and public safety risk.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 adopted budget includes public safety allocations, and transitional leadership creates a timely opening to re-evaluate emergency management systems. Addressing preparedness gaps now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens community resilience ahead of the next budget cycle.

Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The Town has documented fleet accident repair costs, an active liability claim, and rising insurance premiums, despite deploying in-vehicle cameras and establishing an Accident/Incident Review Board. A completed telematics pilot and a budget-approved strategic initiative signal readiness, but gaps in fleet visibility and risk management persist.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes dedicated fleet support funding, and cooperative purchasing agreements are in place to streamline procurement. Acting now leverages the completed pilot evaluation window, reduces liability exposure, and advances a board-approved safety initiative before insurance costs escalate further.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The Town faces an annual cybersecurity training mandate with a documented gap in password management, while strategic priorities include network resilience, cloud retention, and compliance modernization. Several IT contracts expire in September 2025, creating immediate re-evaluation risk if action is deferred.
The opportunity
The adopted FY 2026–2027 budget explicitly funds IT infrastructure improvements, and expiring contracts this fall open a natural procurement window. Acting now allows the Town to consolidate compliance gaps, reduce operational risk, and align investments with cooperative purchasing vehicles already in place.

Public Safety · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The FY 2026–2027 adopted budget explicitly funds mobile command A/V rework and police mobile-data computer upgrades as part of a broader public safety modernization initiative. Transitional leadership within the police department—including a new Captain and the departure of an Assistant Chief—creates urgency to align technology decisions with incoming priorities before direction is set.
The opportunity
Budget is adopted and allocations are active, positioning this initiative for near-term execution within the current fiscal cycle. Cooperative purchasing agreements are in place, reducing procurement complexity and accelerating time-to-delivery for critical public safety infrastructure.
