Fleet Telematics & Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city has a documented history of fleet-related liability settlements, including a $440,000 incident where telematics evidence was unavailable, and a self-insurance structure that amplifies financial exposure. Current telematics coverage is limited outside police operations, leaving significant fleet-wide visibility and safety gaps.
The opportunity
The FY 2026 Grants for Buses and Bus Facilities explicitly covers safety and fleet-management technology, offering a direct funding path aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Active cooperative purchasing agreements and an ongoing fleet replacement initiative enable expedited procurement and immediate risk reduction.

Discuss this project →Cybersecurity Compliance and IT Infrastructure Modernization
Cybersecurity & Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city has missed cybersecurity compliance deadlines—including password security and annual training requirements—and experienced a prior cyber incident that exposed gaps in endpoint security and IT management. A fragmented technology environment increases operational risk and complicates the city's ability to maintain consistent, auditable controls across systems.
The opportunity
The recently approved FY 2026–2027 budget includes $15M in capital infrastructure funding and increased IT operating expenditures, creating an active window for investment. The JAG grant provides an eligible funding path for cybersecurity and IT management initiatives, reducing reliance on general fund dollars. Incoming city leadership presents a timely opportunity to advance strategic modernization with strong executive alignment.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Services Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 2027 for public-facing digital portals, creating legal exposure and barriers to equitable resident access. An incumbent web services contract renewal approaching in November 2026 creates a defined window to evaluate platform capabilities and accessibility alignment before commitments are extended.
The opportunity
The convergence of the contract renewal window and the April 2027 compliance deadline makes the current fiscal cycle the critical decision point for platform and accessibility investments. Approved IT and equipment replacement budget funding is already in place, lowering barriers to action and supporting timely remediation before legal and operational risk escalates.

Discuss this project →Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city faces documented emergency preparedness gaps, including mass-notification delivery inconsistencies and an outdated or undocumented Emergency Operations Plan. Recurring multi-hazard exposure without public after-action reporting elevates both operational risk and compliance exposure for residents and staff.
The opportunity
New executive leadership and an active FY 2026–2027 budget with dedicated emergency management and public safety allocations create a timely window to advance this in-flight initiative. Addressing these gaps now strengthens community resilience, supports mandate compliance, and aligns with available state and federal preparedness funding pathways.

Discuss this project →Password & Identity Security Compliance Remediation
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The city has recently missed cybersecurity compliance deadlines tied to password security and annual training requirements, creating active regulatory exposure. This targeted gap within the broader IT modernization effort poses operational and liability risk to city systems, staff, and the residents they serve.
The opportunity
The JAG grant provides an identified funding path for cybersecurity remediation, and the approved FY 2026–2027 budget includes increased IT operating expenditures. Cooperative purchasing agreements are in place to streamline and accelerate procurement within the current fiscal cycle.
JAG Grant
Discuss this project →Fleet Replacement & Lifecycle Management
Fleet Modernization · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The city has an active fleet replacement and lifecycle management initiative, but limited fleet-wide visibility and a history of liability exposure—including settlements where monitoring data was unavailable—underscore the operational and financial risks of delayed action. Structured asset turnover and safety modernization are now strategic priorities.
The opportunity
The FY 2026–2027 budget includes capital infrastructure and public safety funding increases, and cooperative purchasing agreements are confirmed active for streamlined acquisition. A current federal grant window supports safety and fleet-management technology integration, reducing local match burden and accelerating procurement.
